Synergistic Research Pink AC Power Cable

From $198

Machine-built power cord with innovations from the flagship SRX XL series delivers renowned Synergistic Research sound quality at groundbreaking $198 price.

First, we set out to design the highest-performing machine-built power cord we could—heavy-gauge conductors, voiced to mirror the harmonic texture, holographic energy, and musicality of our latest handmade power cords.

Multiple variations. Voiced. Blind tested. We weren’t chasing “good for the price.”
We were chasing the sound of Synergistic Research—at a price no one saw coming.

Then we did what only Synergistic Research can do: we infused it with the same UEF compound developed for our seventh-generation Pink Fuse. We applied the long-duration, high-voltage conditioning process used to voice our SRX XL and Foundation XL cable looms. And we engineered it to integrate—seamlessly—with PowerCell 8 SX, Active Ground Block SX, and Tranquility Pod Carbon.

Why?

Because people say we only make ultra-high-end gear. Expensive cables. Exotic components. They say we don’t build for the rest of the market.

We wanted to show the industry otherwise. So we built a $198 power cord that—in our direct comparisons—outperforms a model from one of our most respected competitors. A power cord that retails for five times the price of the Pink.

Audition the Pink Power Cord in your system today— and tell us if anything else even belongs in this conversation.

SRX XL Matrix Shielding

In their journey to design our latest flagship SRX XL series, SR developed an entirely new UEF compound to elevate the performance of their previous Matrix Shielding, which further lowers each cable’s noise floor while lessening restraints a shield may have on signal transmission. SR applies this highest level of SRX XL Matrix Shielding to our new Foundation SX XL cables for a significant jump in performance over the previous generation Foundation SX. Carbon Fiber UEF Tuning Discs developed for the Foundation SX and Foundation SX XL series cables further refines and enhances the loom’s ability to cancel noise that would otherwise cause high frequencies to sound harsh or fatiguing.

A Solid Baseline for Great Sound

While its SRX Matrix XL Matrix Shielding and advanced voltage conditioning process sets the cable apart from competitors in the marketplace, it is also outfitted with three of our 14AWG OFC copper conductors wrapped with PTFE dielectric and terminated with solid copper plugs. A built-in Pink Carbon Tuning Disc further tunes the electromagnetic fields around the connector for optimal sonic performance.

SRX XL High Voltage Conditioning

The new SRX XL High Voltage Conditioning is SR’s most advanced process for treating cables with 1,000,000 volts of electricity at specific frequencies and pulse modulations for long durations, creating a canal in the conductor material and contact points at the molecular level that allows electrons to flow more freely. This new process improves upon the SRX High Voltage Conditioning process by employing new extended duration sweeping frequency plots and advancements to SR’s Tesla Coil, resulting in SRX XL cables to sound even more open and accurate than the cables before them. For Foundation SX XL, we utilize this exact conditioning process, which we found to contribute to the large performance improvement in this series, bringing the voicing of the Foundation SX XL closer to that of the SRX XL.

Specifications

3 each 14 awg. SR Copper:
  • Dielectric: (EPDM) Ethylene Propylene and PTFE Dielectric
  • Connector Input US: 1 each Synergistic Research Copper – NEMA
  • Connector Input Int’l: 1 each Synergistic Research  Copper – SCHUKO
  • Connector Output US: 1 each Synergistic Research  Copper 15A IEC
  • Connector Output Int’l: 1 each Synergistic Research  Copper 15A IEC
Build Notes:
  • SRX XL Matrix Shielding: UEF coating with Graphene is applied directly to connectors significantly reducing the noise floor and allowing a purer signal to transfer with less grain providing more warmth and detail
  • Silver Solder: 4%
  • Hand build time: 2 hours
  • SRX XL High Voltage Conditioning 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
