Synergistic Red Fuse ...

I see my previous post got deleted by mods for using foul language.  Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for the suggestion Charles.

Not to be repetitive but some reasons why the fuse is actually critical include but are not limited to it’s exposed to RFI, it’s exposed to vibration, it’s exposed to magnetic fields, it’s a conductor, thus purer and/or better metal conductors and end caps are audible. For starters I would specify 5 nines silver or 7 nines copper for the fuse wire, end caps and the fuse holder. It's not rocket science, folks.

Bingo. From my own personal experience, it took a couple of days for the new fuses to break in while playing 24/7, just like any new cable or component. 

Now before anyone counters with how can something so small need to be broken in, think about all the discussion about capacitors, connectors, cables and the like needing some time to break in. This is generally agreed upon.

The act of removing and inserting terminations which removes motes of oxidation has been made to discount just what actually is responsible, as has extremely small matters as turn on and warm up time needing to be exactly the same, time of day, weather conditions, seating position, frame of mind, etc and yet some other thing as small as a fuse is to be discounted?

Gentlemen, you are arguing against yourselves.

All the best,

Hi Nonoise,
That's why I am glad there are two threads discussing premium fuses. One for the skeptical and this  thread for happy users of these fuses. This is good IMO , one side will never convince the other,  waste of precious time. 
Charles, 

I suspect there are many others out there either sitting on the fence or waiting to be convinced who would appreciate a balanced discussion.

But nothing wrong with a good old fashioned rah rah thread either if that’s what one is looking for.

Hey Fox News and CNN each get to put their own spin on things uninhibited for teh most part and draw good ratings so why not fuse threads.

Hello Mapman, 
I think you miss my point. It isn't a case of rah rah (not sure why you'd characterize it this way). I definitely have no issue with open discussion and have said so several times. After awhile redundancy sets in.  That's why the alternative thread concerning the fuses is an effective outlet for those such as you.  You have plenty of company there and that's good as far as I am concerned. 

Many people here have reported sucessful and very gratifying outcomes and certainly that includes my experience with the SR Black fuses.  We all understand and appreciate your impression and commentary but why the need to repeatedly state it on this particular thread?  We clearly get your point. So IMO the availability of the two opposing fuse threads each address the  different perspectives. 

I don't post repeatedly on the other thread extolling the benefits of the Black fuses, what would be the point in doing so?  Minds are made up over there regarding their virtues and that's fine with me. I see no need for endless squabbling and the inevitable name calling. Two separate but interesting threads is the better route. 
Charles,
