Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?

I was visiting the SR factory today to see and hear the new Galileo cable cells (amazing). While I was there I asked Ted about Bacardi's idea for an Active HDMI cable and learned that Ted already has one at home. Long story short Ted went on to post the basic gist of our conversation to this thread not realizing that I was already logged in on his computer. I apologize for any problems this may cause and hope people will understand.

Ted or anyone else

what would be your choices for isolating the QLS? wood? carbon? metal? softer squishy stuff?

oh and I finally installed my teslaplex today.

Thx Ted. I am curious about the Active Component cord you have on the S.R site but if used with a D3(digital) they cannot pass lossless audio formats. Only HDMI can. I do want the 6x sound quality for home theater, not just the stellar video image. With all I have now with the Tesla series cords, accept for a Hologram D and Powercell 10SE(near future), the lossless audio formats would be just jaw-dropping. So your saying we are left to settle with less.....i've gone this far for my home theater I feel the HDMI would be the candles on the cake....I think HDMI is kicking off but will be a standard for home theaters...

Regards Bacardi

Ted. Do you think for now I should use my Resolution Reference X2 active digital and my HDMI for home theater movies??? Will it be better than just the HDMI??

Regards Paul

heheheheeeeee. Just got demo T2 and T3 from dealer. Even right out of the box and after having to move some other cables around to get things fitting in the right places they sound so much better than the cardas goldens.

I started with the T2 on the pre and the T3 on the CDP. We'll see how it sounds after a few days of playing. I have a 2nd T3 to try on the pre but there's plenty of warmth and detail with the T2 so it might be too much. We'll see though.

I also tried different footers under the QLS instead of having it strapped directly to the rack. No footers there is amazing detail and layering but things have a somewhat harsh edge and the bass is a tad thin. First I tried some herbie's tenderfeet. Sounded ok at first, lots of bass.. but I noticed the sound was muddied and the bass lacked detail. Next I tried some cardas blocks and things opened up more. The muddiness is gone and so is the original harsh edge, bass is deep, full bodied and detailed... however there is still some loss of the soundstage width and air.

I've ordered some ebony domes to try next.
