Description:

Synergistic Research’s Foundation Series cables uses 6N purity pure silver conductors using Synergistic’s own handmade Air String geometry with the company’s UEF (Uniform Energy Field) Matrix shielding. This last is pulled from the more up-scale Atmosphere X cables, placing UEF technology in a grid pattern inside the cable and with a graphene sleeve extending around the connector itself. 

Consistency and detail are uppermost with Synergistic’s Foundation cables. They are remarkably revealing, both of equipment, but in particular of the music played through that equipment. Consistency in this case means both cables perform equally well and deliver a well-balanced sound that is coherent and precise from the lowest notes to the highest. A good vocal is projected – but not ‘pushed’ – into the room and neatly delineated from the rest of the band, with a coherence, stage presence, and microdynamic precision that makes the band sound like a band, not simply a collection of musicians vaguely playing together and never once falling foul of the ‘audiophile disease’ of making a huge soundstage at the expense of the cohesiveness of musicians in that mix. The sheer amount of detail the Foundations produce does mean thin and compressed-sounding pop can sound, frankly, bloody awful… but in fairness, revealing more of what goes on in the studio sometimes reveals more bad than good. Just be prepared to re-evaluate those tracks you thought ‘good’; the trick of using Shure SM57 microphones on drums to give a ‘live’ feel comes across as more ‘trick’ than ‘benefit’ here.

Foundation has the added bonus that for more attainably priced systems, it covers its tracks well and could stay in a system for the long haul; in fact, it’s only when you insert them in a monumentally high-end wide bandwidth system do you begin to crave even more detail and extension… which points you further up the Synergistic range. And best of all, it makes systems sound coherent and entertaining and both of those qualities seem to evaporate at Synergistic’s removal. 

Synergistic Research has taken the technologies used in its top cables and trickled down to an affordable level without sacrifice. Foundation is an excellent bedrock in audio that can make a potentially good system into a really great one
