About synergy?


Many audiophiles believe in using cables and electronics as corrective devices. The other side thinks keep all your equipment with the same sonic flavor, otherwise you will more then likely end up with an audible mess. Some even think it's a given to match your source(cartridge/cd player)with the same sonics of your speakers. I stray slightly to the same sonics camp, but i'm very curious what others have to say about synergy.

I'm not clear on the question , but if the OP is asking if same brand same sonic signature is a way to obtain audio nirvana , the answer is likely no for most of us . If a preamp has a warm sonic signature than the last thing we need is a same brand power amp that is also on the warm side . Two warms don't make a right .
I have owned matching electronic's from Levinson , Audio Research and Ayre , all great stuff but all imparted there own house sound on the music . A variation with one major component can make it very difficult to hear that all to distinctive sonic signature . And it's never a crap shoot unless you purchase equipment without hearing it at length in your system .
