Synergistic Research - NEW Element Cables

Hey, if anyone wants to take their Synergistic cables to another level, do yourself a favor and get the Michael Spallone MPC mod. This mod will take the stock crappy MPC to the Galileo's level of performance. Michael uses better parts than what's inside the Galileo MPC. He replaces the Synergistic MPC's four cheap, general purpose 1 amp rectifier diodes with four ultra fast, soft recovery IXYS rectifier diodes and the 470uf 50 volt dirt cheap chinese electrolytic cap with a 680uf Panasonic FM extremely low impedance, high ripple current, long life (7000 hrs). It is now a super low noise power supply.

I loved my Synergistic cables before Mike's mod but at his price point I figured what the hell, I'll send him my MPCs. WOW! More transparency, blacker backgrounds, increased detail and warmth with even lower noise floor than stock MPCs. Mike's mod made me a believer and I can't recommend him highly enough.

Devilboy, very timely post. I am seriously considering getting some Tungsten power cables and was about to get the Gallileo Mpc. I also like the 2 leads of the Gallielo. I wonder if Michael Spallone can do that too with his mod? So how do we get in touch with him? I tried a search on Google but didn't come up with anything.

Tboooe, look up his username: Michaelspallone, then send him a message. You better be sitting down when you find out how little he charges to bring an MPC to Galileo level.

Thank you Devilboy. I contacted Michael. Looking forward to this.

I have been looking for a decent pair of speaker cables and against my better judgment I tried some SR from the cable company as well as Kimber. I've now tried some DH labs stuff including some interconnects, Stereovox interconnects borrowed from a friend. It went against my better judgment to try to the SR because I just can't go with the whole tuning bowls thing, etc. Having said all that - and six months if somebody told me I was going to spend as much as I'm about to spend on cables as I'm about to spend I would have told them they're crazy, I'm running element copper between my DAC and Calypso preamp and Atlas amp, then the element copper speaker cables. I'm getting one of the tungsten interconnects to try to before I decide to make the purchase. It just makes that much of a difference in my system. It IS like night and day against other products I've tried. There is a focus and dimensionality with the products that nothing else I've tried approaches. The all important timbre of instruments is spot on, dynamically good, could use a tiny bit tighter bass for my tastes but the cables are just flat out great. I guess I'm a convert.
