HDAV 16/4 Speaker Wire cable geometries and design philosophy are trickle-down technologies from Synergistic Research premium high end cable products. This entry level 16 AWG cable is made up of mult-strand Copper Matrix, providing superior performance to that of typical copper wire.

Just like it’s high end cousins, HDAV Speaker Wire was developed through a balance of objective measurements, subjective material selection, and critical listening tests that compare reproduced music to that of the live musical event.

The dielectric material used in ALL Synergistic Research speaker cable is a multi-extruded Polyethylene. It is clear in color, with a single color-coded strip. This is accomplished to enhance the dielectric properties. All cables that are solid in color have in them a much higher degree of conductivity, due to the dyes that are used. These dyes affect the electrons traveling the signal path, and translate as a smearing or coloration in the end result. We developed this exceptional dielectric free of these added distortions to provide a clear, clean, natural presentation.

Due to the higher degree of resolution in HDAV, longer runs are possible, and the smaller diameter of the cable translates into quicker and easier pulls.

HDAV RG-59 Interconnect is our entry-level field terminated bulk audio and video/digital cable. HDAV is a direct result of the economic, aesthetic, and performance requirements that our dealers and customers around the world have come to expect from us and our depth of products.

HDAV RG-59 Interconnect has a 20 AWG Copper Matrix center conductor. This material is a proprietary alloy consisting of primarily single crystal copper, combined with several other precious metals, to form a consistent platform for voltage transmission. The benefit from a Copper Matrix center conductor is higher resolution in both audio and video signals. It easily outperforms standard copper in the correct ratios of capacitance, inductance, and resistance. It’s characteristic impedance is 75-Ohm +/-1 and it’s Capacitance PF/meter is 17.3+/-1.7.

The dielectric is a Modified PolyEthylene has an average thickness of 1.45mm and a diameter of 3.71+/-0.1mm. With excellent dielectric properties, the Modified PolyEthylene was developed for flexibility and cost effectiveness. HDAV utilizes an aluminum Mylar shield, combined with a 16×6 Copper Matrix shield, providing extreme RF and EMI rejection while maintaining superb flexibility.

The jacket material is an opaque blue Polyvinyl chloride with an average thickness of 0.97mm; tough, durable and attractive.

RCA & XLR “Y” Adapters
While we’ve always frowned upon the use of RCA & XLR adapters from a performance standpoint, they are available for those occasions when they absolutely cannot be avoided. These “Y” adapters are all handmade and made-to-order in our California factory.

Alpha represents the zenith of in-wall speaker cable design. There is not another custom installation speaker cable in the world that undergoes such a strict regiment of design and manufacture. Even directionality of the Alpha is taken into consideration.

To determine directionality, each quantity of Synergistic Research Alpha actually goes through subjective listening tests BEFORE the jacket material is even applied, to give the purest accuracy and most musical presentation.

This is a 12 AWG, 2 conductor cable constructed with Type I Copper Matrix conductors. The high resolution conductors are enveloped in clear multi-extrude Polyethylene, and shielded by 100% Aluminum Mylar with a drain wire provided. The jacket material is a frosted modified Polyvinyl.

AV Décor derives it’s performance from advanced aerospace engineering, and Synergistic Research high-performance materials like Silver Matrix conductors and a modified PE dielectric, for noticeably sharper images in video applications and more low level detail in audio.

AV Décor RG-59 incorporates a 20 AWG Silver Matrix center conductor. This alloy is comprised of a proprietary mixture of precious metals with a high level of pure silver. The process used in making this alloy is also proprietary, and involves a gradient change in silver throughout the alloy. This is not a clad or plating technique!

The dielectric used in AV Décor is similar to that of HDAV, providing excellent dielectric properties while maintaining flexibility and keeping costs down. The jacket material is an opaque Polyvinyl chloride with an average thickness of 0.97mm. This outer jacket was specifically designed with a low drag for easy pulling through walls.

The cable itself is CL rated and UV stabilized with foot markers. AV Décor represents a benchmark in RG-59 cable construction, and with it’s much smaller size and greater flexibility, it well exceeds the specifications and performance of most RG-6 contenders in existence.

TESLA Quad represents the zenith of in-wall speaker cable design. There is not another custom installation speaker cable in the world that undergoes such a strict regiment of design and manufacture. Even directionality of the TESLA Quad is taken into consideration.

To determine directionality, each quantity of Synergistic Research TESLA Quad actually goes through subjective listening tests BEFORE the jacket material is even applied, to give the purest accuracy and most musical presentation. In it’s non-Active state, the TESLA Quad is easily the best in-wall speaker cable available.

The careful planning and design of the TESLA Quad geometry allows for future upgrade to Active Shielding technology. Built into the TESLA Quad geometry are all the necessary components to employ Active Shielding. This is accomplished by simply integrating an Active Shielding Kit. The result is the highest performing in-wall speaker cable in existence. TESLA Quad has the same make-up as Alpha speaker wire, with double the conductors, and includes an additional 22 AWG Active Shielding return wire.

AV Matrix is our extreme performance field terminated RG-6 interconnect. It has an 18 AWG Silver Matrix center conductor, formulated to exceed the specifications of any other on the market. It is extruded using the same process as AV Décor, with a higher quality alloy.

The unique center conductor is combined with a virgin air foam dielectric. Our designers have discovered this to have almost identical dielectric characteristics to that of Teflon, but with much more flexibility, cost effectiveness, and avoidance of the heat produced in the Teflon extrusion process, which can adversely effect the signal carrying properties of the center conductor.

AV Matrix has an Aluminum Mylar foil shield, and a 90% coverage Silver Matrix shield, combined to make this cable ideal for long runs of satellite, video or digital installations.

The jacket material is a Modified Polyvinyl with a frosted color, attractive, with a high end look and feel. ALL field terminated interconnect cables are CL rated, fully shielded, UV stabilized, and upgradeable to Synergistic Research Active Shielding.

Usage: By combining a completely new and unique Silver Matrix cable geometry with our Active Shielding technology, we have created something so exceptional that seeing is truly believing. The end result: blacker blacks, whiter whites, and a delicious saturation of radiant colors that burnish in the daylight. Every cable is hand build to specification, with craftsmanship unmatched.
