Ever hear a power cable make a huge difference?


I just had to share this. I went to synergistic research the other day to get some cables re-terminated. I saw some power cords on the floor and decided to ask about them. Ted, said they were all prototypes, would I like to listen. He brought me into the demo room and played some great music. He switched out the preamp power cord for one of the prototypes and man was it noticably better. Then, he left and came back into the room with a big smile on his face. He pulled a cable from the back that I swear was just recently built. He confirmed that no one had listened to it yet. He put the new power cable on the preamp and...................NO WAY!!!!!!!!!!!! It was unbelieveable what a difference I heard. I could not believe how much bigger the sound stage grew, better focus, detail, and faster tighter bass. I had him switch the PC in and out because I just could not believe what I heard. Then he said "lets make it better." He brought it to his Tesla machine and gave it a quantum tunneling. He put it back in the system and to my surprise it was un believably better then what I had just heard. It now made the whole system easily sound 3 times as good. I just could not believe my ears. Then I had to know, how much could I get this cable for. I would think at least $2000 if not $3000. Nope, this will probably go for $500. Well Ted, sign me up for a few of those bad boys.

I love it:

"He brought it to his Tesla machine and gave it a quantum tunneling."

And then what? He dropped it into his P.T. Barnum vat, and gave it a snake oiling??

I have had quite a few conversations with Ted upgrading my Designers Reference Cables to the tesla series. In April I upgraded my interconnects and was very pleased with the results. last week I replaced the speaker cables with Tesla Apex, And once again was completely satisfied with the results. The overall presentation was improved, loads of detail improvement in the soundstage and extension in both directions was astounding. Ted and his crew are making truly world class cables. He also told me about the tesla power cords that they are working on, based on my previous experiences with their products I told him to put me down for serial number 1
I have heard a power cable make a "noticeable" difference, but I would not classify it as "huge". Since the power cable could be made for < $100, I consider it money well-spent. However, I would *not* spend $500 or more for what I heard. Just my 2 pence...

From what I know about Quantum Tunneling, I gather that he took the cord, violated the principles of classical mechanics by passing it through a wall, and then hooked it up. Just another audio miracle from "David Blaine's House of High-End Sound and Other Wonders."
