Why don't gold based cable fans try Synergistic


I am looking to try new cables and have been reading the archives in cable forums on all the great cable recommendations. I'm trying to get a handle on how the Synergistic Tesla range that I once owned compare to the gold based cable offerings.

However for some strange reason hardly any of the members here who seem to have tried the various gold based faves (Gabriel Gold, Jade, KCI, Purist and others) have not been tempted to try the popular Synergistic cables and not much here in the way of comparisons. I am not sure why but there seems to be two camps.

Anyways hoping to get a comparison as I had the Tesla Accelerators in my system for a short while and wonder if the gold based cables have the same naturalness, depth of soundstage, air and separation of the Teslas. I should add that as good as the Accelerators were sound wise I did not like the idea of introducing more electricity into my system with the active shielding hence looking for comparable alternatives.

Frank: I agree with Blindjim, but also think you touched on something else that coincides with my impression when you said"...the general tone was not much different than my cheaper and conventional...interconnects." Speaking from my own perceptive vantage point, I'm not especially enamored with a kind of sound that seems to emphasize how clean, clear and neutral it is, but I respect the right of others to feel differently.
I'm with Jmcgrogan2 all the way.

I have a great respect for SR, but after exhausting many interconnect trials,
I went for Gold and never turned back.
I'm very happy with my Jade Hybrids. No need or desire to change unless I want to downgrade.

Soooo.... just as long as the cables have gold overlay or termination that's all one needs? Or are all the 'gold' not in California, alike?

Well, for the uninitiated, who makes these Gold wires and about what do they cost? Also, does it matter if the rest of the system is not so associated? Are they best suited to source cables or mains?

Sorry but I'm curious now, but don't want to get into a whole hog affair and make major moves in order to 'step up'? performance.

I'm considering replacing my HT Magic IIs which are main ics now. Been thinking about doing another MIT Magnum 2 or 1 but use it as source and move the Nirvana Sx Ltd into the preamp to amps (main) spot.
I guess I will just have to find out for myself about the virtues of gold in cables through experimentation.

Unfortunately I realized since my earlier post the planned GG Raptures even at the used price of 1K might be over my budget and will consider the Silkworms at more or less half the price used to see how I like it (obviously one can not generalize with one cable and if it does not work out I probably should try atleast one other gold based cable to get an idea of how gold cable sounds).
