Headphone Cables.

Foundation SX headphone cables are handmade in our California factory from core Synergistic Research technologies, including handmade Air String Geometries made or pure 99.9999% Pure Silver conductors in an Air Dielectric for unmatched resolution. We then add UEF Matrix Shielding with a new UEF Compound first developed for our SRX cable loom for a dramatically lower noise floor. Next we include a new Long Duration High Voltage Conditioning Process, initially engineered for our flagship SRX cables, making Foundation SX the most musical and highest resolution headphone cables you can buy. With a full suite of SR Technologies, you hear inner detail and holographic realism thats never harsh or fatiguing, unlike most pure silver-based cables. And to make voicing them to your headphone rig easy, we include UEF Carbon Tuning discs to strike the perfect balance of musicality and resolution. In short, weve created the worlds best headphone cables, and were confident youll love their sound over ANY headphone cable on the market, regardless of price. So step up, take the Foundation SX Challenge and discover how good your current headphone system actually is.

Quantum Tunneling

SRX Long Duration High Voltage Conditioning.

After perfecting the most natural-sounding and holographic cables in our history, we set out to take them further with a new high voltage conditioning process that applies a sweeping frequency plot for an extended duration. We experimented with dozens of frequencies in different combinations over a prolonged time period before landing on just the right mix. We even built a new Tesla Coil to handle the excess heat generated during long conditioning sessions. Once finalized, the SRX conditioning process created holographic realism and timbrel accuracy far beyond our previous Tesla Coil conditioning protocol.

Build Notes:

• 12 point-to-point hand soldered connections
• Atmosphere Level 2 UEF Matrix Shielding:UEF coating with Grapheneis applied directly to connectorssignificantly reducing the noise floor and allowing a purer signal to transfer with less grainproviding more warmth and detail
• Silver Solder: 4%
• Hand build time: 2 hours
• Quantum Tunneling:Post Production process, 1 million volts are passed through finished cable providing a canal that allows electrons to pass more freely through conductor material and connections
• SecondaryUEF Blue Treatment originally developed for SR Blue Fuses
• 5 day Burn-in: 2 step process
• Hand crafted in our California factory
