Atmosphere SX USB

Digital Perfected

Atmosphere SX USB starts with a cable designed and voiced with a single goal, to convey music with low-level detail and an emotional connection without drawbacks commonly associated with the digital format. To this end, we use our propriety UEF Graphene shielding, now supercharged with UEF Tech first developed for our cost-no-object SRX cable loom. Next, we engineered a direct-to-ground shield for a lower noise floor than is possible with standard non-direct grounded shields that pass noise to component ground. And for the ultimate in resolution with musicality, we hit each cable with the SRX Long Duration High Voltage conditioning process. Additional features include a new conductor alloy and a new shielding matrix selected in double-blind testing, where they excelled in low-level detail retrieval and tonal accuracy, with a dramatic new level of high-frequency extension that is always musical and never fatiguing.

 

 

 

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.

 

 

UEF Ground Plane

Optimized performance.

Atmosphere SX Digital interconnects incorporate the capability to ground your cables to either a wall outlet with the included SR Ground plug or to a Synergistic Research Ground Block (sold separately) to elevate the performance even further.  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.

 

 

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.

SPECIFICATIONS

4 each Copper Matrix conductors
  • 23 gauge solid copper conductors 
  • Dielectric: Solid Polyethylene
  • Shielding: Duel Silver Mylar / Braid shield-Quantum
  • Tunneled Ground Plane Technology
  • Listened for signal direction before build
  • Hand crafted in our California factory
 Build Notes
  • Atmosphere SX UEF Graphene Shield: 2 different UEF coatings with Graphene are applied to connectors and cabling and ground significantly reducing the noise floor and allowing a purer signal to transfer with less grain providing more warmth and detail.
  • The conductors and ground plane also benefit from dampening effect that UEF provides
  • Quantum Treatment: After the cable is completely assembled all connections and cabling are treated with 1,000,000 volts of electricity at specific frequencies and pulse modulations, creating a canal in the conductor material and contact points at the molecular level that allows electrons to flow more freely. This allows the maximum amount of low level information through the conductors and provides for the highest amount of realism in your music
  • Secondary UEF Blue Treatment originally developed for SR Blue Fuses
  • UEF Ground Plane Termination
  • Hand build time: 1.5 hours
  • 5 day Burn-in: 2 step process
  • Hand crafted in our California factory
  • 5 day Burn-in: 2 step process
  • Hand crafted in our California factory
SR Ground Block (optional)
  • Atmosphere SX USB Interconnects have shields that can be grounded direct to earth with supplied ground cables bypassing your component’s power supplies for a lower system noise floor.
  • To improve performance further still use an optional SR Ground Block with its UEF Ground Filter to elevate overall system performance; not only can you star ground and UEF filter the shields on all Galileo UEF interconnects and speaker cables in your system, but can also ground all of your system’s components to the Ground Block for a dramatic lowering of your system’s noise floor for greater detail, clarity and musicality.
