just read the reviews

RUN!!! DO NOT WALK TO YOUR NEAREST DEALER. These cables are fantastic and for the price, they are a steal. The soundstage opened up, imaging was better and more airyness to the vocals. I have never been so impressed by a cable. These replaced my kimber select 1021 which are nearly the same price and there is no comparison between the two. My System: amp - Krell KSA 300s pre-amp - Krell Krc-3 cd player - arcam fmj 23 speakers - thiel cs 3.6 speaker cables - kimber monacle xl's

Soundtage, detail, dynamics, like having a person performing in your living room

WOW!!! That is all that needs to be said about these cables. Inserting these interconnects into my system was a defining moment. I never knew that my system could sound this good. My system: Wadia 850 Sony 333ES SACD changer Wadia 150 A to D converter Pass Labs X-150 Cable is all Syn. Res. The speaker cable is Res. Ref .5 (X-Series)

I found through experimenting with different cables from monster wire can;t hear anything, kimberly eck!,straight wire BARF-O-matic,nordost decent,taralabs not bad,and others I forgot them because they were so bad.. When my friend bought alpha sterlings I thought he was cracked in head but listening to them I should be burned at the cross for saying such a bad comments about alpha sterling or even better cable revolution ref. they make my stereo blend & melt into the room with so much music & sound stage that is incredible.People come to my house and step into living room while I have the music playing on my stereo at listening levels not blasting that they stop and listen to it and the looks at their faces with such amasement and delight that they alway want to know how did I do it with so much clarity and smoothness..I say start with "INTERCONNECT CABLES" then improve amp then speakers then preamp it will take awhile but the END RESULT ....FANASTIC !!

With the Resolution Reference 1m XLR interconnect w/active shielding, from pre-amp to amp, you feel like you are at a LIVE CONCERT in the FRONT ROW or ONSTAGE with the performers. There is so much life and energy to the music that was never present with any other interconnect. I have Thanked the person who allowed me to purchase this cable at such a low price many times after the purchase. Had a local dealer had one burned-in for me to demo, I would have paid the full price without argument. This cable is that good.
I am using the alpha sterling w/discrete shielding on the tuner and cd presently, so there is room to improve yet, but no arguments with the present sound, except the bass is a tad too much. I tried the middle of the synergistic research line of interconnects and did not get these dramatic results. From this experience I feel the most important interconnect is from pre-amp to amp.
I used the SR website's Cable Diagnostic script to determine which interconnects would be right for my system. It did not mention the Resolution Reference as a choice. I beg to differ. If your system is even close to the $10,000 range, don't cheat yourself and think this cable costs too much compared to your system cost, try a demo cable from your dealer and you too will hear the difference and prepare to be amazed. Enjoy the Journey!

Agree with Jim's Review. I had a lot of trouble getting my system right using what I thought were decent cables (Kscope phase 2, and some Goertz sapphire) This Res Ref cable was in another league altogether. I could hear very audible differences for the better immediately. So much so, that I was happy to pay the dealer price for a second pair for the amp to amp run.

Detail, exc. bass

none

Buy it, you will not disappoint. I been used a lot of cables
(interconnect: between preamp and amp), I found this cables one of the best (expensive thou!: $1,000 /1 Meter pair) but it worth every penny. VERY VERY detail and exc. control bass.
