Atmosphere SX Series Power Cable
EUPHORIA SX
Atmosphere Euphoria SX Power Cables are an all-out assault on your system’s noise floor. In this pursuit, we employ all SR power cord technologies including, Active Shielding, the option to ground its shield to a star ground point or SR Ground Block, and Galileo SX tuning bullets for a bespoke sonic match to your system. All conductors, wall and IEC connectors, shields, and the same Swiss-Made power supply found in our Galileo SX power cords are further treated with a proprietary process to improve frequency smoothness with increased resolution. Sonically Euphoria SX is voiced to express a sonic balance similar to our Galileo SX power cords through the use of Copper Matrix Alloys, 6-9 Silver conductors in a complex geometry array comprised of three hand-made Air String geometries and three High Current geometries running in parallel. In addition, Active Shielding gets its power from a Swiss Made power supply feeding the shields and an Active EM Cell that was first developed for Galileo SX power cords to function as discrete PowerCell line conditioners. We then voiced the power cords internally with new Carbon Fibre UEF Tuning Discs exclusively engineered for Atmosphere SX cables to push resolution boundaries without harshness or limitations. Lastly, you can voice Euphoria SX with included Galileo SX Gold and Silver UEF Tuning bullets. First, listen to your power cord without a tuning bullet for 48 to 72 hours allowing the cable to settle into your system. Then compare the Gold and Silver Galileo SX Tuning Bullet on each of your Euphoria SX power cords, choosing the option that makes music in your system. Tip: very few systems, if any, benefits from all one color or another. Most systems will sound best with a majority of either Gold or Silver bullets, but with a component or two that perform best with the opposite color. Gallio SX Gold Tuning Bullets capture warmer sound with liquidity over pinpoint spatial detail. Galileo SX Silver Tuning Bullets are detailed and dynamic with a pinpoint focus at the expense of liquidity. All systems benefit from a majority of either Gold or Silver with a component or two that will sound best with the other option. Tuning individual cables with Galileo SX Tuning Bullets achieves the best sound characteristics of both Gold and Silver with a bespoke balance unique to your system.
UEF Matrix Shield with Graphene
Matrix Shielding
The previous Atmosphere X Series Cables started as an experiment to explore ways of improving UEF Shielding by placing UEF Tech at strategic grid points on the shields of Atmosphere cables, now called Matrix Shielding. Matrix Shielding arranges UEF elements on a grid pattern of the cable shield to lower its noise floor. Atmosphere SX refines Matrix Shielding further by using new Carbon Fibre UEF Tuning Discs developed expressly for Atmosphere SX to enhance the loom's ability to cancel noise that would otherwise cause high frequencies to sound harsh or fatiguing. As a result of our ongoing research into UEF Shielding, we have pushed the resolution envelope when voicing Atmosphere SX by developing new Carbon Fibre UEF Tuning Discs for a more holographic sound with enhanced resolution and musicality.

How to use tuning modules.
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.
UEF Cell
Swiss made power supply.
Learn more about UEF Cell
Each Atmosphere Level 3 Power Cable contains a Swiss-made power supply and Quantum capacitors to generates the 30 Volt DC bias necessary for Active Shielding, eliminating the need for messy external wiring and cumbersome wall warts. Performance is further enhanced by the introduction of UEF technology built into the power supply and cable shielding for an incredibly low noise floor.
Active Ground
Optimize performance with SR Active Ground Block
Details
Atmosphere X Euphoria takes a page from our Flagship Galileo SX power cables and incorporates the capability to ground your power cables to a Synergistic Research Active Ground Block. This ground is designed specifically and only for use with the Active Ground Block. When this ground is not plugged into an Active Ground Block connection, Atmosphere X Euphoria uses a built-in ground path similar to the original, passive SR Ground Block meaning the optional cable ground will only benefit from the Active Ground Block and its Active Electromagnetic Cell. Benefits include a noticeable increase in deep bass power and weight, a more holographic sound field, smoother high frequencies with greater extension and ‘air’, a more present and layered mid-range, increased tonal density with an apparent increase in resolution.
Note: Atmosphere X Euphoria does not include a ground plug. Grounding the optional pigtail to the wall or other ground paths will not improve the performance of the cable. It is designed only for use with the Synergistic Research Active Ground Block.

Review
Based on my experience, the newer Atmosphere Euphoria SX cable series improves upon the already outstanding series, not in any subtle way. These newer cables represent the evolving innovation and technological improvements from a company continually exploring ways to improve its current success.
Bill Wells - StereoTimes - January 2023
Review
At some point, later in life, we acquire fine components, realizing that they will become our "forever" amp or loudspeaker. The Excite SX cables qualify for that status for me. I wish I had reached this level a decade ago. But in the case of Synergistic Research cables, who can really say "forever"? Ted Denney and Synergistic Research are showing no signs of slowing down their creativity or technological innovation.

"The Synergistic Research Atmosphere X Euphoria (Level 3) interconnects and speaker cables, along with the Atmosphere UEF (Level 3) power cables, have rekindled my passion for the very best in sound and performance. I had not realized that there was so much more musical information available that could transform my system well beyond flavor or personality."

"Finally, moving on to the Euphoria Level 3, and once again I heard more of the same. I made out a firmer bass line and more articulate piano playing. The decay of the notes seemed more evident, and overall the sound had noticeably greater subtlety, finesse, and delicacy. There was something more, as I felt more drawn into the music."

Carbon Performance Elevators
Elevate your system.
UEF Carbon Elevators lift your cables from the floor as they uplift fundamental aspects of system performance, including low-frequency weight and control, mid-range clarity, and high-frequency extension. Perhaps most dramatic is the effect on your system’s ability to portray soundstage scale with improvements in front to back, side to side, and verticle image placement, all with a greater sense of the sound field wrapping around your listening position. Our first cable elevators were made from aluminum after extensive double-blind listening tests, where aluminum exhibited superior sound quality compared to materials like plexiglass, wood, and ceramic. The one material we did not test was Carbon Fiber due to its difficulty to cut and fabricate. Fast forward two years, and we have perfected the use of carbon fiber in SR products, including our state-of-the-art SRX cable loom, Galileo Active Ground Block, Active Ethernet Switch, and MiG SX footers. So we built a set of carbon fiber elevators and compared them to our Aluminum cable risers. We found the same improvements as all SR products using carbon fiber, namely, increased resolution, inner detail, and clarity. The included HFT’s (Red Dot visible in photographs) use a new UEF compound first developed for SRX speaker cables and Purple fuses enteract with your cables EM fields for life like soundstage scale with enhanced dynamics and high-frequency extension. Of course, cable elevators are a controversial upgrade for many, so we make it easy to try a set in your system risk-free. Audition in your system, and if you disagree, return them to your dealer for a full refund.
