Synergistic Research Carbon Performance Cable Elevators

Synergistic Research Carbon Performance Cable Elevators

Carbon Performance Elevators lift cables off the floor using a carbon fibre construction, developed after Synergistic Research compared carbon fibre against aluminum, plexiglass, wood, and ceramic in blind listening tests — aluminum was their original choice, with carbon fibre added later once they solved the material's fabrication difficulty. Each elevator includes a built-in HFT (Red Dot variant), using a UEF compound originally developed for SRX speaker cables and Purple fuses, intended to work on the electromagnetic field around the cable itself. Synergistic Research is upfront that cable elevators are a controversial tweak among audiophiles, and offers a risk-free, no-questions 30-day return through your dealer if you don't hear a difference in your own system. As an authorized Synergistic Research dealer in Toronto, Canada, Vinyl Sound can help you decide if Carbon Performance Elevators are worth auditioning in your setup.

Carbon Performance Elevators FAQ

Do cable elevators actually make a difference?
This is a genuinely debated tweak in the audiophile community. Synergistic Research acknowledges the controversy directly and backs the product with a no-risk 30-day return, so you can judge the effect in your own system before committing.

What's different about these versus a plain cable riser?
Carbon Performance Elevators include a built-in HFT using UEF technology, in addition to the carbon fibre material itself — most plain cable risers only address physical elevation, not electromagnetic field interaction.

How many do I need?
This depends on how many cables and cable runs you want to elevate — ask your Vinyl Sound dealer for a recommendation based on your system layout.
