Synergistic Research Ethernet Cable

SRX Ethernet shares the same hallmarks as the rest of the SRX lineup. Namely, an ultra-low noise floor with inner detail, dynamics, and holographic realism to rival the best analog playback while setting a new digital benchmark. Anyone experienced with master tapes understands there is a significant difference between the best of digital and tape, with tape possessing detail, musicality, dynamics and three dimensionality not found in other formats.

SRX Ethernet takes your state-of-the-art DAC close to your best tapes in your reel-to-reel deck while surpassing the majority of tapes in your library. And if you are a vinyl lover, you will find many of your files, CDs, and SACDs can now compete with and surpass all but your best vinyl recordings. To set this new digital standard, we start with an exploded geometry comprising two 3rd Gen Silver Matrix geometries, and four Silver Air Strings.

Each Air String is hand-made in our California factory from 99.9999% pure silver in an air dielectric with a UEF grid running the cable’s length to lower the noise floor and expand the sound field. We then apply the SRX Long Duration Multi-Frequency High Voltage Conditioning Process for enhanced clarity, musicality, and detail without fatigue.

And for a lower noise floor still, connect the SRX Digital’s Ground Plane to an Active SR Ground Block. Each hand-made geometry and ground plane is run through carbon fiber discs to maintain separation between conductors for lower capacitance and cross-talk. Voicing the cables to your system is easy with supplied Gold and Master SRX Carbon Fibre UEF filters.

Now with Master Tuning Modules ($850/pair MSRP). SRX Cables come standard with the most potent and musical UEF Tuning Bullets in our company’s 30-year history and work 100% outside the signal path. Both Gold and Master bullets are handcrafted in our Southern California Factory from carbon fiber and aircraft aluminum with the Gold option plated in 24k Gold not only for aesthetic beauty but also to help voice the bullet to its intended role as the most musical option for specific systems.

To use SRX Carbon Fiber Tuning Modules, allow your SRX cables to settle into your system for 48-72 hours, and then experiment with your two options on a cable by cable basis. Start by inserting a Gold Bullet and then compare to the Master option and select the variant that makes music in your system. Gold Bullets have a warm and liquid balance that is also more open and transparent than our other warm-biased tuning bullets.

While the Master is more extended and detailed but the option that will work best and sound neutral is totally system dependent. If you voice your SRX cables one pair at a time, you will find one color that works best in most applications, plus a few that perform better with the alternate option. This process is how you will get the best from both Gold and Master bullets when arriving at a bespoke cable loom voiced for your unique system.
