It houses next-generation Electromagnetic Cells (EM Cells) — the first re-engineering of this technology since Synergistic Research's original patent — to selectively filter high-frequency noise from incoming AC power and the digital signal path, along with a new Ultra Low Frequency (ULF) Biasing system and an updated linear power supply refined during Voodoo server development. Synergistic Research states these changes deliver an expanded soundstage, enhanced resolution, and improved tonal accuracy compared to the original UEF Ethernet Switch, with more authoritative bass and airy, precise treble extension.
