Original Synergistic Research state-of-the-art Galileo System Interconnect design.

If you're not familiar with this product, it would be worthwhile reading about the design on the SR site (http://www.synergisticresearch.com/galileo-system-interconnect/).
These are the original no-holds-barred Galileo design from SR designer Ted Denney. They require 2 weeks of hand-built labor using thousands of dollars of gold, silver and expensive Lemo connectors to construct. The later Galileo UEF and LE line of cables are simplified designs that are less expensive to build.
The definitive professional review was by Jonathan Valin (http://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/synergistic-research-galileo-cable-and-interconnect-tas-210/). To quote from the summary: "...the Galileo system is what I would buy if I could afford to buy it. Although there are several other great wires out there—with considerable virtues of their own—Galileo is, as noted, the closest I’ve come thus far to “no cable” at all.).
In additional to the incredible sound quality, the Galileo system offers special flexibility in that it can be configured by the owner for RCA or XLR connections without any loss of fidelity. See my picture showing the entire system. On the edges are the RCA and XLR pigtails.
In the center, are the 8 99.9% silver "strings" that connect the Galileo EM cells at each end of the cables. In addition, this Galileo set includes 4 optional 99.9% gold strings which can be used to substitute for the silver strings to give a warmer tone to the cable set.
The system comes with a top-level Galileo power supply for the EM cells which can be seen in my picture of the system packed into it's supplied flight case.
I purchased this system as a demo from a leading SR retailer 3 years ago. It has performed flawlessly since then. There are no functional issues and the appearance of the components is almost perfect - there are a few small smudges on a couple of the surfaces of the acrylic power cells which are not visible unless up close and brightly illuminated.
I am selling the system because I now only need one set of very long interconnects, having moved my source component to an adjacent room.
