New review and award: Synergistic Research Foundation Cable Series

Synergistic Research Foundation Cable Series

After The Absolut Sound Editors Choice Award Synergistic's Foundation Series was reviewed again, this time by Enjoy the Music.

Rick Becker writes:
"... I was skeptical that the Foundation cables would make such an improvement in my system, yet they have replaced cables that cost far more and taken my music far higher. Combined with a handful of their fabulous Orange Fuses, a $2000 to $3000 investment toward Synergistic Research's Foundation cables has taken my mid-five-figure rig well into six-figure territory. That's real value and an admirable feat!"

New product: Synergistic Research Tranquility POD

Synergistic Research Tranquility POD

The new ACTIVE Tranquility PODs conditions the signal while it’s still in your system, just like full-sized Tranquility Bases but in a smaller and more flexible platform. And Tranquility PODs are based on the same ACTIVE EM Cell technology that powers the SR PowerCell line conditioners. But instead of conditioning AC electromagnetic fields, Tranquility PODs interact with the EM fields inside your components for more of what everyone loves about PowerCell line conditioners.

The Tranquility POD is used underneath or on top of devices. The dimensions are 6x6x1" and the price is $749. Until the end of the year you'll get a set of MiG 2.0 with each POD, a value of $249 FREE.

New product: Audio Magic Ultimate Premier Beeswax fuses

Audio Magic Ultimate Premier Beeswax fuseIntroducing Audio Magic's new Ultimate Premier SHD Beeswax Fuse. We didn't think it could be any better but the new "Ultimate Premier" is world class and then some! Now, instead of the push-pull I-Core design, a Full Wave I-Core technology is used which is more powerful. Audio Magic uses new, improved internal Black Out and SHD fills for better noise reduction. A new and improved Nano Streaming process was introduced as well.

The result: better detail, transparency, dynamics, wider and deeper sound staging, micro detail, layering, and talk about musical... Global MSRP is $240 each.

New review & award: the Holbo turntable received a Japanese Audio Excellence Award

Holbo Airbearing Turntable System received Audio Excellence Award


Mr. Hiroshi Onodera of Stereo Sound Online writes  (Oct. 2019):

"...the lack of localization fluctuation in the stereo sound field is solely thanks to the linear tracking arm, which may be attributed to the absence of tracking errors, such as the minimal distortion, the spatial stability of large orchestras, and so on. The benefits are great. In addition, there was something wonderful about the balance between quietness and dynamics, which is unique to this machine. Because of the simplicity of the chassis mechanism, the tonal texture is also natural and it has a casual sound impression. If you are an analog fan, this is a product with a unique world of sound that you want to experience. This is a great option especially for those who focus on stereo images..."

New arrival & review: Synergistic Research Foundation Phono Cables

Synergistic Research Foundation Cable SeriesSynergistic Research has extended the FOUNDATION Cable Series with Phono Cables starting with $699. Jonathan Valin of TAS reviewed the Foundation line and awarded it with the "Top 50 Bargain 2019" award.
TAS wrote (November 2019): "...Jonathan Valin wasn't expecting much- and certainly not this much-from Synergistic Research's immensely pliable, bargain-basement Foundation Series interconnects and cables, which are far slimmer, lighter, and less sophisticated in design than their rich relatives, the superb Galileo SXes. But, trust him, sonically the Foundations come way closer than shouting distance to the Galileos...the Foundation Series is the best budget-priced wire Jonathan Valin has heard-and one of his references..."
