SR Blue Fuses

I just wanted to share my excitement with my SR Blue Fuses. I installed 3 in my Anthem I225. Its been probably 100 hours of burn in time now and I really am beside myself in the difference. The bass is really full, my highs are nicely extended and my soundstage is huge. Just today, my soundstage became ridiculous.
If you are happy with your current amplifier / preamplifier and intend on keeping it for awhile I highly recommend replacing the fuses with SR Blue fuses, if not the Orange fuses. I got my Blues for 30% off. It is quite possibly the best tweak I have done aside from room treatments.

It takes awhile to burn the fuses in but once they are, it’s pretty awesome the difference they make. I was pretty skeptical about this mod and thought it was a lot to spend but now that I have, it was the best $400 mod I have done. It made more of a difference than my upgraded power cords and actually probably made a more of a difference than going from my signal cable silver res speaker cables to my ap solo crystals.

Highly recommended if you already love your amp/preamp and intend to keep them for awhile!

The original poster was clearly enthusiastic about a surprising discovery he made of something that increased his enjoyment of his system. He naturally wanted to share and discuss it with other enthusiasts. Isn’t that what this hobby is all about? Congratulations on your savage beat down. I'm sure he won't make the mistake of mentioning fuses on this forum again.

Somehow I suspect B can handle this horrible situation where people offer their honest opinion and knowledge in their own inimitable way. . If the fuses worked for him I am glad.


If you are going blow a fuse, best to keep things private.

"  just use a really good quality, high rupturing fuse that you can get for under $4.00. (ceramic body, filler to kill any arcing, high quality metal caps, etc.)"

Would you kindly enlighten me as to the brand of fuse that you use. I have LOTS of fuses (28 in amps alone) and am not prepared to spend what would amount to many $1000s as an experiment. Thank you.

anyone saying anything positive, about certain products they clearly have a personal vendetta against, is properly punished.

You need to get it right, snake oiler’s are the ones that need to be the punished.
The OP most likely made a mistake as he did on the CDtransport/Streamer thread he started at the same time, because he mistakenly had EQ’ing going on when he thought it was switched out after much hair pulling.
