Synergistic Research Active Ground Block SX (Includes Foundation SX Power Cable & 13 Amp Pink Fuse)

Synergistic Research Active Ground Block SX (Includes Foundation SX Power Cable & 13 Amp Pink Fuse)

Active Ground Block SX - Sky high performance starts at ground.

The new Synergistic Research Active Ground Block SX is a technological trickle-down of the cost-no-object Galileo Active Ground Block plus new technologies that were not developed when they first engineered the Galileo Active Ground Block. First, they started with a Galileo-style chassis machined from a solid billet of aluminium plus carbon fibre to lower distortion related to mechanical vibration. 

Next, they developed a power supply with technology and lessons learned from our LPS or Linear Power Supply development program for the lowest noise floor of any Active Ground Block to date. Performance of Synergistic Research's ULF bias of ground by introducing duel harmonics of the Schuman Resonance instead of just one with technology developed for the Galileo PowerCell. They also focused on making the new Active Ground Block SX more practical than the popular PowerCell SE by increasing the number of ground points from 22 to 32. 

This means you can ground an additional ten components, cable shields, system stands, or anything in your system made from a conductive material to maximize system performance. With the Active Ground Block SX added to your system you will discover why we say ultimate performance starts at ground level.

Includes 1 x 5 foot Foundation SX 12awg power cable plus 1 x Pink Fuse FREE within the purchase cost.

Ground?

The term “ground” refers to a connection to the Earth, which acts as a reservoir of charge. The high-speed, Synergistic Reearch Active Grounding Block provides a conductive path for this ground, separate from the normal current-carrying path of your components, which under certain conditions can add up to 10 dB of noise if poorly designed! The ground path with the least resistance is the best path to Earth, and there is no better ground path for your components than this Grounding Block.

32 ports to perfection

By cleaning up your system’s ground connection you hear a noticeable improvement in soundstage height, depth and width thanks to a lower noise floor. Soundstage scale is improved with richer tonal density especially at the edges of your sound field. Image outlines are brought into clearer focus while musicality and overall system refinement are greatly improved.
