This room had a pair of YG Acoustics Anat III Studio speakers driven by an Esoteric A-03 amplifier, almost everything sitting on Synergistic Research Tranquility Base XL platforms and, of course, cables with Synergistic cable.

Synergistic Research has been trying to capture part of the weird-tweak craze with their Acoustic Art tweaks. There were a couple of these on the floor.

This cool-blue-tube thing is the power supply for Synergistic Research’s Active Shielding cables.

Ah, the old power cord on the wall trick… 🙂
