Quantum Science Audio Thread

Yes, I found that the midrange is a "little" laid back - my soundstage moved further back -  - and on some pieces the leading edge seems further in the soundstage - so, I suspect some tradeoff...that's why my audition took so long. Overall, I liked what the fuse did, but I don't think you are wrong on what you are hearing. On most music, I preferred what it did musically, more air space, bigger soundstage, while smoother and better dynamics. There was also a little more meat on the bones for instruments and vocals with the QSA fuse. But these could be perceived as reduction in the leading edge, perhaps? It is a system balancing act. I also got more "clarity" - 

^^^ As of last night, I'm preferring the SA Orange fuse in the line stage. I'm going to move the Yellow QSA fuse over to the phono stage where it will replace the existing SR Orange fuse. We'll see what happens there. I'll report back on the results.

Noted.   Happy Listening!

You mean "bump"

I'm waiting for delivery of a yellow fuse to replace a Synergistic orange one. In the meantme I was wondering, what combinations of power cords are members using in conjunction with the QS fuses? Are some cords more sympatico than others? Everything matters.
