SRX USB shares the same hallmarks as the rest of the SRX lineup. Namely, an ultra-low noise floor with inner detail, dynamics, and holographic realism to rival the best analog playback while setting a new digital benchmark. Anyone experienced with master tapes understands there is a significant difference between the best of digital and tape, with tape possessing detail, musicality, dynamics and three dimensionality not found in other formats. SRX Digital takes your state-of-the-art DAC close to your best tapes in your reel-to-reel deck while surpassing the majority of tapes in your library. And if you are a vinyl lover, you will find many of your files, CDs, and SACDs can now compete with and surpass all but your best vinyl recordings. To set this new digital standard, SR started with an exploded geometry comprising two 3rd Gen Silver Matrix geometries, and four Silver Air Strings.ÿ Each Air String is hand-made in their California factory from 99.9999% pure silver in an air dielectric with a UEF grid running the cable s length to lower the noise floor and expand the sound field. They then apply the SRX Long Duration Multi-Frequency High Voltage Conditioning Process for enhanced clarity, musicality, and detail without fatigue. And for a lower noise floor still, connect the SRX Digital s Ground Plane to an Active SR Ground Block. Each hand-made geometry and ground plane is run through carbon fiber discs to maintain separation between conductors for lower capacitance and cross-talk. Voicing the cables to your system is easy with supplied Gold and Silver SRX Carbon Fiber UEF filters. Gold will deliver a warmer and more liquid sound, while silver has increased air and focus. You decide between Gold and Silver Tuning Circuits by listening to your two options for a bespoke system match.
SRX + Master Carbon Cable Tuning Modules. ÿRedefining refinement.
Now with Master Tuning Modules . SRX Cables come standard with the most potent and musical UEF Tuning Bullets in the company s 30-year history and work 100% outside the signal path. Handcrafted in their Southern California Factory from carbon fiber and aircraft aluminum with the Gold option plated in 24k Gold not only for aesthetic beauty but also to help voice the bullet to its intended role as the most musical option for specific systems. To use SRX Carbon Fiber Tuning Modules, allow your SRX cables to settle into your system for 48-72 hours, and then experiment with your two options on a cable by cable basis.
The Master Tuning Module is by far the most open, airy, spacious, dynamic and neutral SR has ever delivered. For most listeners this Tuning Module is an ear-opening revelation and the best place to start. The Gold Bullet is offered as an alternative tuning, featuring a warmer (more forgiving) tonal balance with a honeyed liquidity that some listeners may find particularly enticing. Please bear in mind that just like any other module, both of these will require some measure of play-time to settle in and sound their best. We recommend listening to each module for 72 hrs, partially to settle down and partially to complete their burn-in. There is no wrong choice here, merely your preference!

Quantum Tunneling / SRX Long Duration High Voltage Conditioning
After perfecting the most natural-sounding and holographic cables in the company'sÿhistory, SR set out to take them further with a new high voltage conditioning process that applies a sweeping frequency plot for an extended duration. They experimented with dozens of frequencies in different combinations over a prolonged time period before landing on just the right mix. They even built a new Tesla Coil to handle the excess heat generated during long conditioning sessions. Once finalized, the SRX conditioning process created holographic realism and timbrel accuracy far beyond any previous Tesla Coil conditioning protocol.ÿ
