Synergistic Research SRX XL Interconnect Cables
Synergistic Research SRX XL Interconnect Cables!
Building on SR's development of the SRX XL AC cable almost a year prior, SR now applies a similar approach towards SRX XL interconnects to achieve a new benchmark in performance without compromising SRX XL‘s flexibility. Across the line, SR scaled up the number of its internal hand-made air-dielectric pure silver high-current geometries. SR added additional pure silver geometries and additional pure silver AirString geometries to be able to offer a new world standard where high conductive pure silver conductors in an air dielectric are concerned. With SRX XL interconnects, SR developed an all-new UEF compound applied it to our matrix shielding, which further lowers each cable’s noise floor while lessening restraints a shield may have on signal transmission. The cables are then run through a further improved high voltage treatment, resulting in cables that sound even more open and accurate than the original SRX. The SRX XL takes SRX’s industry-leading dynamics to a whole new level while also improved nearly all aspects of its performance, including soundstaging, lower noise floor, and increased high-frequency extension with added smoothness.
Enhanced Cable Geometries
6N Pure Silver Airstrings, Multiplied
While voicing the SRX XL, SR developed more comprehensive cable geometries with additional 99.9995% Pure Silver Air Strings. In doing so, music is portrayed with more immediacy and resolution, improving upon dynamics and transient response in a completely non-fatiguing way.
UEF Matrix Shield with Graphene
SRX XL Matrix Shielding
In SR's journey to design the latest flagship SRX XL series, they developed an entirely new UEF compound to elevate the performance of the previous Matrix Shielding, which further lowers each cable's noise floor while lessening restraints a shield may have on signal transmission. SR applies this highest level of shielding to the new SRX XL cables for a significant jump in performance over the standard SX. SRX and Master Tuning Bullets developed for the SRX series cables further refines and enhances the loom's ability to cancel noise that would otherwise cause high frequencies to sound harsh or fatiguing.
SRX + Master Carbon Cable Tuning Modules
Redefining Refinement
SRX XL cables come standard with the most potent and musical SRX Master and Gold carbon fiber UEF Tuning Bullets in the company’s 30-year history. The bullets are specially voiced for the SRX cable series so you can strike the perfect balance between detail and musicality for your system. Both Gold and Master bullets are handcrafted in our Southern California Factory from carbon fiber and aircraft aluminum, with the Gold bullet plated in 24k gold not only for aesthetic beauty but also to help voice the bullet to its intended role as the most musical option for specific systems. To use SRX Carbon Fiber Tuning Modules, allow your SRX cables to settle into your system for 48-72 hours, and then experiment with your two options on a cable by cable basis. Start by inserting a Gold Bullet and then compare to the Master option and select the variant that makes music in your system. Gold Bullets have a warm and liquid balance that is also more open and transparent than our other warm-biased tuning bullets. While Master is more extended and detailed but the option that will work best and sound neutral is totally system dependent. If you voice your SRX cables one pair at a time, you will find one color that works best in most applications, plus a few that perform better with the alternate option. This process is how you will get the best from both Gold and Master bullets when arriving at a bespoke cable loom voiced for your unique system. Note, UEF Tuning Bullets work 100% outside the signal path!

Shielding :
- SRX XL Matrix Shielding: UEF coating with Graphene is applied directly to connectors significantly reducing the noise floor and allowing a purer signal to transfer with less grain providing more warmth and detail

Quantum Tunneling:
- SRX XL Quantum Tunneling: After the cable is completely assembled all connections and cabling are treated with 1,000,000 volts of electricity at specific frequencies and pulse modulations, creating a canal in the conductor material and contact points at the molecular level that allows electrons to flow more freely. This allows the maximum amount of low level information through the conductors and provides for the highest amount of realism in your music

Reviews of the original SRX Cable Series:
Jonathan Valin of The Absolute Sound writes:
"...Ted Denney & Co.'s latest creation, the tunable, actively shielded, multi-stranded. pure six-nines-silver SRX cables and interconnects, are the most sophisticated products Synergistic Research has developed since SR's original Galileo. They are also the best sounding - by quite a margin..." (full review forthcoming)
Robert Youman of Positive Feedback - 08/2019 (SRX Power Cable):
"...the Synergistic Research SRX power cord has me rethinking my entire system configuration and performance. When only one SRX power cord was used with the Synergistic Research PowerCell 12 UEF SE power conditioner to drive my entire system there was a clear correctness of presentation that had not previously been realized. I can only imagine what might happen if I used the SRX for all my components! Caveat emptor. Never say never. If you audition the SRX, you may never go back..."

Review of the SR 25 limited Edition (SRX) Power Cable:
Howard Kneller - SoundStage! Ultra - August 2018:
"...Synergistic Research’s complex and difficult-to-manufacture SR25 Limited Edition power cord so stunningly demonstrates the relationship between high-quality power and high-quality sound that it may represent the apotheosis of power-cord design. When I said that the SR25 transformed virtually every aspect of my system’s sound, I wasn’t exaggerating. It was difficult to believe that these improvements were caused by a single power cord, or that my system already contained a high-end power conditioner and cords..."
