Ultra-Low Frequency (ULF) Generators
Our Ultra Low Frequency (ULF) RF acoustic field generators broadcast various low frequency harmonics in relation to the Earth’s Schumann resonances. By doing so, they act as a dither to overpower ambient RFI and EMI in your room and components, resulting in a lower noise floor with music that flows more effortlessly, more expansively, and is less fatiguing. Better yet, many of our ULF applications allow you to bias the harmonics in different ways to personalize the presentation of music in the ways you most prefer.
ULF was initially developed for macro applications that affect the presentation in your listening room, such as our FEQ Carbons and Atmosphere modules. These applications are actively powered, but they are not in the signal path! Instead, our ULF-enabled products broadcast inaudible waves concurrently while music is playing through loudspeakers. Through R&D, we have since applied ULF technology in more localized, micro applications within our component offerings such as our Active Ground Blocks, PowerCells, Voodoo streamer/server and more, finding that a close partnership between the application of our EM Cells and allowing people to choose from different ULF biases reaps positive results in how they perceive and connect with their music.
Why it Matters
Often called the “heartbeat” of the Earth, Schumann resonances are natural, ever-present vibrations generated between the Earth and its ionosphere. Schumann resonances make up the principal background in the part of the electromagnetic spectrum from 3 Hz through 60 Hz caused by a waveguide, a directional transmission of the Earth. These resonant frequencies impact everything from brain function and circadian rhythm to thought patterns and proper heartbeat. Simply said, Schumann resonances can be thought of as an electromagnetic connective tissue between human beings, other life around us, and our planet.
Monitoring of Schumann resonances and disruptions to them are employed to track global lightning activity, earthquake prediction, and global warming. Moreso, several scientific studies have been published to help us understand the properties of high integrity (maintained) Schumann resonances and wellness across people. In fact, studies have shown that our bodies ‘reclock’ to these resonances in favorable ways, enhancing learning, perception, memory, and resilience to stress.
The integrity of Schumann resonances can be adversely affected, resulting in extreme high frequency noise that degrades sound, by several disruptors such as:
- Lightning
- Geomagnetic storms
- Radio frequency interference
- The sun’s rays in relation to our atmosphere (which is one reason most people believe music at night sounds better!)
- EMI in the local environment (our electrical systems and electronic components)
By employing our ULF technology in both localized (inter-component) and room-wide solutions, we re-establish the integrity of the Schumann resonances in our room, and we are better able to ‘reclock’ the flow of our music and how we emotionally connect with it.
Its Role in the Uniform Energy Field (UEF)
ULF is one of a few unifying fundamental technologies that work in partnership to establish what we call the Uniform Energy Field (UEF). For example, as the use of a FEQ Carbon will afford a freer musical flow, our Transducers (e.g. HFTs, ECTs, GCTs) are more effectively ‘excited’ with the proper information, and you will hear a more significant and substantial impact by utilizing both together.

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.
