For over a decade, Synergistic Research has refined the PowerCell series to deliver award-winning line conditioning for the most discerning audio enthusiasts. Now, with the development of our forthcoming flagship SRX PowerCell, the PowerCell 14 represents a complete rethinking of high-performance power conditioning—offering unprecedented dynamics, engagement, and realism for your system.

Redesigned Electromagnetic Cells

The foundation of the PowerCell 14 lies in its revolutionary EM Cells, redesigned from the upcoming SRX PowerCell for maximum efficiency:

• A comprehensive overhaul dramatically increases filtering efficiency, lowering the noise floor and improving dynamics.
• The overall EM Cell surface area is 100× larger than previous generations, providing a significant boost in electromagnetic conditioning.
• Acting as supercapacitors, the EM Cells deliver 100× more energy, enabling even the most power-hungry amplifiers to achieve superior dynamic response and leading-edge transients.
• The result is a smoother, more holographic, and accurate sound field that surpasses previous PowerCell generations.

Advanced ULF and DC Biasing

PowerCell 14 leverages the Galileo SX PowerCell’s power supply and ULF Field Generator, enhanced with learnings from the SRX PowerCell and Voodoo streamer/server development programs:

• Reformulated Ultra Low-Frequency RF bias delivers cleaner, more precise AC re-clocking with the Schumann Resonance.
• Integration of both ULF and DC into the EM Cells has been optimized for maximum musicality.
• A radically evolved DC bias supply ensures consistent performance.
• New 24k Gold UEF tuning circuits provide harmonic richness and enhanced tonal detail.

Three Frequency Bias Modes for Tailored Sound:

• Blue (Default): Smooth midrange with linear frequency transition, creating a large and enveloping soundstage.
• Green: Slightly forward midrange with more bass emphasis for added presence.
• Red: Optimized for large-scale orchestral and electronic performances.

Elevated Grounding

PowerCell 14 includes a UEF Ground Plane first developed for the Galileo SX PowerCell, reducing the noise floor and improving soundstaging. For even higher performance, the unit can be connected to a Synergistic Research Active Ground Block, lowering the noise floor further and enhancing low-frequency weight and attack—without sacrificing any of the fourteen AC outlets.

Form Meets Function

The chassis is crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum, carbon fiber, and plexiglass, engineered to manage mechanical and electromagnetic resonance. Its physical design optimizes the efficiency and directivity of the EM Cells, minimizes ambient interference, and maximizes the fidelity of your system. Top and front windows provide visual access to the meticulously hand-built circuitry inside.

Customizable Illumination

PowerCell 14 features nine lighting options for both the front amp meter and top circuit window. Choose from Galileo White, Synergistic Research Blue, Dante Red, or McIntosh Blue to match your system—or select no illumination for a more understated loo
