That's OK Sean, I was going to offer you some old microphonic signal tubes as payment anyway. Thought that you would enjoy listening to them sing along with the music in perfect harmony, it's kind of a Karoake effect.
I emailed them back today and told them that there a fu34in joke and that iam selling all my syn stuff.Like
briweve I well never buy there product again.
There is too much good stuff out there to put up with this

Maybe I'm crazy, but I say it's time we take responsibility for our hobby, our love. I for one would be more than willing to send them a very polite e-mail stating my disbelief and disappointment. If you all really feel the same, do not be afraid to do so as well. Heck, maybe they'll see the error of their ways. Whether or not any one of us owns their product our love of this hobby does pay their salaries and feeds their children, maybe it's about time we let them know that to treat one of us unfairly is to disrespect all of us. We do deserve more, we put our trust in them, we shout our praises gladly and easily. Some on this site give their emotion for a company so fiercely as to condemn the feelings and opinions of people they do not even know. Yet given the chance to show their appreciation or loyalty to those that swear by their name, and what do they do, brush us off? No, not anymore, we are not sheep to be herded! We are the lifeblood of this industry, if we do not stand up and try to make a difference can you really blame them for doing anything other than trying railroad us into "new, cutting-edge technology" at prices so exorbanent that quite possibly those that we love and that love us sometimes get less. Anyways, give the e-mail address and I'd like to respond, maybe a little less dramatically, but just as strongly! What's the worst that can happen, they'll ignore me? Sounds like they're already doing that.
Evo, completely outrageous attitude by Synergistic, you would think they owed you a favor for getting gouged when you first got the cable!

Harkey info about Siltech is reassuring and shows a quality company that services its products. Siltech makes some of the highest priced cables known to man, so if they can be reasonable Synergistic is way out of line......as some have said they are defacto refusing to do custom cable work.
Nordost use (past tense) to charge next to nothing for re-terminations until they realized people could and were buying longer lengths of SPM and Quattro Fil and then having them cut and reterminated, saving hundreds. They now charge $100 each connection. So having a 3 meter SPM made into three, one meter cables will cost $400 plus tax and shipping. It use to cost about $100.
