Synergistic Research SR20 AC Master Coupler Power Cable

Are you paying fair used money for a respected cable, or overpaying for a well-known name? At A$590, this sits around fair-to-strong used territory for an SR20-era Synergistic Research AC Master Coupler, with comparable asks showing roughly A$750 for a 5 ft pair-equivalent sale and a current new listing around A$760 before any local tax or shipping uplift. That makes this asking price reasonable, and if the cable is complete and genuinely clean, it’s not a stretch to call it a good buy.

What makes it worthwhile is the usual Synergistic appeal: a lively, resolving power cord that can add a bit more grip, space, and perceived dynamics without turning blunt or grey. These are bought for system fine-tuning as much as outright “sound quality,” so the upside is highest in a revealing setup. A very good-condition example is the right sort of listing to chase; just confirm the exact length, plugs, and that there’s no damage to the terminations or jacket before you commit.
