SR Fundamentals

Electromagnetic Cells (EM Cells)

Our patented Electromagnetic Cells are foundational building blocks responsible for the electromagnetic conditioning across your power line, your components, and your system’s signal path. In its most basic capacity, EM Cells project an electromagnetic field that filters out and redirects contaminants, allowing a combination of the proper signal and mechanical energy to pass. By eliminating extraneous feedback that takes form as high frequency hash, you are left with sound that to the human brain sounds natural. The result begins with a lower noise floor, which allows the rendering of more information, greater dynamics while improving smoothness and effortless, and an overall more holographic and accurate soundstage.

Initially developed for the first Synergistic Research PowerCell, EM Cells are now present in just about every active component we offer. You’ll notice our active, rolled EM Cells not only in our PowerCell, but also in our Active Ground Blocks and power cables from the Atmosphere SX line and up. We have also designed flat, platform-like EM Cells that we use in both our Tranquility Carbon Bases and Pods as well as within our other electronic components like our Voodoo Streamer/Server. And as a third set of applications, we developed passive EM Cells that come to life in some of our cables and Carbon Tuning Discs.

Some of our most recent and upcoming product releases, such as the PowerCell 14 and the SRX PowerCell, feature a comprehensive redesign of our EM Cells which deliver a significant increase in electromagnetic conditioning. Even better, Our EM Cells’ supercapacitor capabilities have increased exponentially and can deliver more peak current per millisecond than what you can get from the wall, enabling even the most power-hungry amplifiers to sound more dynamic with better leading-edge transients.

Why it Matters

For almost 100 years, people believed that electricity flowed like water flowing through a pipe. This is way of thinking is incorrect, and there’s no such thing as a dirty electron. Instead, physicists today understand electrons don’t flow at all but rather propagate in an energy waveform that moves along the surface of a conductor with a multitude of factors that alters this wave at the quantum level!

Considering this, noise can attach itself to electrical charges (power line, signal line, within components, etc.) at any point where it has the chance, enter the circuit, and contaminate the signal in different ways. Perhaps most notably, ambient radio frequency interference creates a high frequency hash, resulting in a more brittle, fatiguing sound, smearing of image clarity and a sense of compression in the sound stage. Synergistic Research designs and offers products and solutions that can be placed strategically across your system at its most critical points to optimize power and signal flow and enable your music to sound its absolute best.

Its Role in the Uniform Energy Field (UEF)

EM Cells are one of a few unifying fundamental technologies that work in partnership to establish what we call the Uniform Energy Field (UEF). For example, we discovered a close partnership between the application of our EM Cells and allowing people to choose from different Ultra Low Frequency (ULF) biases reaps positive results in how people perceive and connect with their music.

We also now apply EM Cells in more localized applications within our current component offerings, along with solutions to improve the performance of your existing components:

Hearing is Believing

We fully acknowledge that high end audio cables and accessories are polarizing territories of discussion. Synergistic Research takes both objective and subjective approaches towards the design and development of our products. We strongly believe that every measurable difference is audible, but not every perceived audible difference is measurable. Rather than getting into argument or debate, we encourage you to gain direct, first-person experience to understand impact of our UEF portfolio, all of which carry a 30-day no-risk money back guarantee.
