I took the challenge and agree 100% with Kenscollick and Leica man. I never had a problem with Synergistic customer service. Always top notch.
Synergistic Research Tesla Apex
Further thoughts on the Synergistic Research Tesla Apex interconnect.
A couple months back I took the “tesla challenge” I was perfectly satisfied with my designers reference interconnect, but always looking for that audio nirvana I had my wire updated. Knowing there would be an improvement I was not ready for just how much.
Ted and his crew performed their magic on my cable. It is hard to use ordinary words to describe what my aging ears heard. Everything was much better. Mainly in the detail that was conveyed, without being sterile. Something that has to be known is cables of any type or brand is that they cannot add anything to the signal. Therefore the designer must lose as little as possible. I believe that that is exactly what Synergistic Research has attained in spades.
I have a couple of discs that I am intimately familiar with Eva Cassidy Live at Blues Alley, Mary Black No Frontiers, and Cowboy Junkies Black Eyed Man.
The very beginning of cheek to cheek Eva does a little vocal that locates her in the soundstage she remains locked there and the rest of the song just blooms around her, That has not happened before. On Fields of Gold you will find yourself not breathing.
There are a couple of songs on No Frontiers that really show the range of Mary’s voice. On I say a Little Prayer all of the instruments are clearer and precisely located.
That brings me to my favorite song not only for evaluation but enjoyment A Horse in the Country. Margo’s voice was like I was hearing it for the first time, Smooth with just a hint of her Canadian accent. If you have not heard this song on a really good system you should run to your Synergistic Research dealer.
I cannot say enough about these great cables except to go and hear them for yourself, or go to the website and take the Tesla Challenge for yourself.
I was so pleased with the upgraded interconnects I am getting the matching speaker cables. The only downside is not having my system for a couple weeks but I am sure it will be worth it. Of course I will report on the cables, if the improvement is of the magnitude of the interconnects it will be a while as I will be enjoying my system.
