Well that is the beauty of the Synergistic Research Blue outlet. You can try it your self and in your own system and return it  during the 30 day trial period for a refund. The total cost of the experiment is about $6.00- return postage. And since...

mac48025I got a major improvement in sound after treating my crossovers with Total Contact. I treated all the connections to and from the crossovers, the wire connections to the individual speaker drivers, and coated the capacitors and resistors ....

millercarbon:Thank you for a most easy to read and insightful look at using the HFTs.The HFT 2.0 will give some warmth and increased fullness to the sound, and it does not sacrifice detail in doing so. The FEQ is going to potentiate the effect of ... 
What is the best sound system you ever heard?
One sound system comes immediately to my mind and is open to the public (with some advanced planning).  Synergistic Research's listening room in Santa Anna, California. Every aspect of what can affect sound has been considered and addressed. Also,...

Absolutely. I purchased a 1935  Philco console radio after finding out it was the same model my Mother listened to as a teenager. Very enjoyable indeed after restoration. Thank goodness we have learned how to improve digital music since the 1980's...

sgordon1 and sbayne both makes  important points. The wide angle HFT has a significant effect on the soundstage and how you perceive the soundstage . My room already treated with HFT’s and the Atmosphere unit only needed one Wide Angle HRT. It too...

lak:I have used and still own 5 Furutech GTX-R outlets. I now prefer the Synergistic Research Blue outlet. They have the big spaceous sound and detail of the GTX-R but the detail is more relaxed,  and there does not seem to be any one frequency th...

Hot glueing the HFT’s in place definitely increases their effectiveness compared to attaching with Blue Tac.David Pritchard

Frank:Absolutely correct reaction when even just one HFT falls off a wall. After installing two Synergistic Research Blue Wall outlets yesterday, I sat down to listen. First impression was “something is not quite right”. I had bumped a HFT and it ...

Installed the Synergistic Research Blue fuses and Blue outlets first thing this morning at Mother's. I just got back from a Sunday night dinner and listening session. Her system is a Pass Lab First Watt F-7 amp, PS Audio Direct Stream DAC, and Ter... 
Any one try the new Synergistic Research BLUE UEF Duplex receptacle?
Installed 3 Synergistic Research Blue outlets today. What is interesting to me is how fast the sound improves when these Blue outlets are installed. Immediately there was a perceived increase in dynamics. Over the next hour, the soundstage widened...
