FUSES??? Just when I just replaced all my PC cords.

David Pritchard are you associated with Synergistic Research?  

Just wondering.

Sorry at the last second you went cheapskate on your audio system.
Those Hi-Fi fuses are accurately named. They have been on "sale" for a long time. You will hear some improvement or at least some change in your system.

The Synergistic Research Black fuse  is currently the best audiophile grade fuse available according to most but not all who tried them.

What is not debatable is that the SR Black fuse comes with a no risk 30 day trial. This gives plenty of time to break in the fuse and try it in both directions.

I am not associated with Synergistic Research in any way. I am not a dealer, reviewer, or beta tester. I do not receive any samples or get any special "dealer pricing".

I am a Cardiac Anesthesiologist practicing in Las Cruces, New Mexico.
I am on the Board of Directors of the chamber music series "El Paso (Texas) Pro Musica". The Emmy winning cellist Zuill Bailey is the artistic director.

I come from a scientific - medical- music loving environment.
My father was Jack A. Pritchard MD who was the discoverer of the treatment of Eclampsia in pregnant women and the author of William"s Textbook of Obstetrics.

When I try to improve my listening systems I try to do so in a methodical  scientific method. I am fortunate to have the opportunity to listen to world class musicians up close and and the same program multiple times.

I do think the Synergistic Research Black fuses are a significant sonic advancement. The cost for said improvement is small , and the fuse comes with a money back trial. For these reasons I am an advocate for the Synergistic Research Black fuse.

Mr. Pritchard, I'm truly sorry you feel that I became a cheapskate in trying
a fuse upgrade that only cost $20. For your information, I'm a disabled veteran living on a fixed income, and personally would feel awfully guilty telling my beautiful wife that I spent $120 on a fuse for my amp.
Not everyone on this site makes seven figures, and can spend without
regret, but I will tell you one thing Mr. Pritchard, nobody enjoys listening to their gear ( though modest by most standards) than me.

It actually wasn't that long ago that rather than replace the six or so fuses in my system, which I could have done at that time since Isoclean and HiFi Tuning fuses had come out already had I a mind to, I simply reversed the stock fuses one a time, listening after each switcheroo, until they were all in the correct orientation.  Am I cheap or what?
