PHONO Cables
Analog natural sound
Galileo SX Phono

Galileo SX Phono is the most complex phono cable we’ve ever attempted. With 4 x Air Strings RCA and an incredible 6 x Air Strings XLR, Graphene- a near superconductor at room temperature, Silver and Gold UEF Filters voiced expressly for Galileo Phono cables that work outside the signal path allowing you to switch between a warm and detailed balance, state-of-the-art silver SR20 RCA’s and XLR’s, High Definition Ground Leads that ground shields and noise direct to ground- not your system, 2 x UEF EM Cells made from precious metals, graphene, and UEF Tech with a silk dielectric, and Pure Six Nines Silver in an Air Dielectric, you hear every nuance from your treasured vinyl with breathtaking clarity and musicality. Compared to Atmosphere UEF music flows with greater ease in a more holographic soundscape. And thanks to the same UEF Technology that makes SR BLUE fuses so musical, you’ll rediscover your music collection with an unparalleled realism that elevates even your less than audiophile grade pressings.
Note: Galileo UEF Phono is actually the first cable to use the new Galileo SX technology. If you have a Galileo UEF phono, it is built identically to the new Galileo SX phono sans the newly redeveloped Galileo SX Tuning modules.

Foundation Phono

Our new Foundation Interconnects and Speaker Cables are the brainchildren of our Lead Designer who wanted an affordable IC and SC loom with the performance for which other companies charge thousands of dollars. To make this a reality, Ted distilled his highest performance cable technologies like pure six nines silver in a handmade Air String geometry with UEF Matrix Shielding taken directly from our Atmosphere X Series cables and a full Blue Fuse treatment to make these cables punch far above their weight class. When paired with our UEF Blue or Black AC Power Cords, you have an affordable loom with sonic performance enough for even six-figure stereo systems.
If you are like many audiophiles, perhaps you’ve never experienced a full loom of cables designed to work together because you felt they would be too expensive? Or perhaps you think your current cable mix match is synergistic in your system? If so, now is the time to audition a full loom of Foundation cables with UEF Blue or Black power cords from Synergistic Research, and you’ll discover just what your system is truly capable of. We are so confident these are the best sounding cables in the world at their price points, we’re offering them through participating SR dealers and distributors with a full 30-day money back guarantee. With Foundation cables, you can take your time and discover what the Synergistic Research house sound is all about. Foundation Series cables also blend perfectly with all current SR Series cables including Atmosphere X and Galileo SX so you can mix and match while staying true to the SR house sound of detail, air, soundstaging and dynamics with an ultra-low noise floor. Foundation cables are also a solid foundation when employing other SR products that create synergy in acoustics, AC and Ground Filtration, and Component Isolation.
