Synergistic Research Atmosphere SX Euphoria Phono Interconnect (Level 3)
SELECT OPTIONS:
Atmosphere X Series Phono cable
EUPHORIA
(Level 3)
Atmosphere X EUPHORIA is hand built in our California factory with 2 x 4th Generation Tricon and 2 x 99.9999% pure silver Hand Made AirStrings RCA, and 2 x 4th Generation Tricon Geometries and 4 x 99.9999% pure silver handmade AirString geometries XLR. Performance is enhanced with the same UEF Technology that makes SR BLUE Fuses such a game changer. Additional design features include a passive UEF Filter in a carbon fibre housing, 1,000,000 volt conditioning process we call Quantum Tunneling, Graphene Shielding for the quietest of all Atmosphere phono cables, and Red and Blue UEF Tuning Modules that you switch between a detail and a liquid sonic balance completely outside of the signal path- simply select the option that makes music in your system, multi-layer mechanical resonance rejection for improved detail and clarity, and Ground Plane coupling that redirects shield noise away from your phono preamplifier placing RF and EMI where it belongs, at the wall ground when you use the supplied ground connection.
UEF Matrix Shield with Graphene
Matrix shielding.
Atmosphere X began when we started exploring ways to improve our UEF Shielding by applying UEF Technology first developed for our BLUE Fuses to Atmosphere Series cables. By placing UEF Tech in a grid pattern on the shields of Atmosphere cables we were able to dramatically lower the noise floor with a surprising increase in musicality or the subjective enjoyment of music. We then began a painstaking double-blind 6-month trial where we would listen to seemingly identical cables marked with random alphanumeric codes to conceal differing patterns of UEF Tech inside each prototype cable and record which options elicited the strongest responses among a control group of listeners. By gauging actual emotional response, we were able to isolate grid patterns that better conveyed the essence of music. We would then build on these patterns to find additional patterns that performed better than the last. In this way, our latest shielding technology is highly evolved from anything we have ever done before with each shield pattern selected for its ability to not only lower a cable’s noise floor but to also convey a greater sense of musical enjoyment. The net result is the most advanced shielding technology we have ever developed with each model in the Atmosphere X Series gaining a special shielding pattern that best compliments the geometries of ALIVE, EXCITE and EUPHORIA.
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.
UEF Cell
Filter noise, feel the music.
Atmosphere X Euphoria interconnects and speaker cables integrate the same Patent-Pending UEF Cell technology used in our Flagship Galileo UEF series. Within Carbon Fiber enclosures, these Unified Energy Field Cells are comprised of precious metal foils with Teflon and Japanese Silk dielectrics. UEF components, including Graphene, are applied directly to the signal and shields, lowering the noise floor and allowing the musical information to move through the cable unimpeded by spurious interference and signal reflections. The result is music that is uncompressed, visceral, and live.
Red and Blue Tuning Bullets
Redefining refinement.
Imagine tailoring your interconnects and speaker cables to match your electronics. This is possible with Atmosphere X Series Excite (Level 2) and Euphoria (Level 3) interconnects. Never before has a cable design allowed you to fine tune your system and bring out all the music the way you want it. Excite and Euphoria Atmosphere X Interconnects and Speaker Cables come standard with our newly developed UEF Tuning Modules that Let you voice your cables to match your system and musical preferences.
Atmosphere X Excite (Level 2) provides the RED UEF Tuning module while Atmosphere X Euphoria (Level 3) comes equipped with both the RED and BLUE UEF Tuning Modules.

- Atmosphere Level 4 UEF Matrix Shielding: 2 different UEF coatings with Graphene are applied to UEF Cell, connectors, 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 UEF Cell also benefit from dampening effect that UEF provides
- 1 Termination for Atmosphere tuning Module (Red and Blue)
- Silver Solder: 4%
- Hand build time: 5.5 hours
- Quantum Tunneling: 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
