Synergistic Red Fuse ...

"I have wondered where SR bought their SR Black duplex. I did some googling and found a duplex that looks very similar. Hmmmm..."


Hmmmm indeed....

Great thread for identifying all the things I look for on my checklist of who to ignore:

1.  Constantly posts on forums instead of listening to their system.
2.  Uses any product by Synergistic Research (Have any of you seen what happens when you open up their products and see what's inside?  Have you never talked to an industry insider at shows?  Have you never done their A/B tests at shows and seen the chicanery?)
3.  Claims a product sounds terrible/disappointing/etc before "break in", but then marvelous after ### hours.  What exactly happens to the centimeter of cable in a fuse that causes this? Assuming some major transformation occurs, are you over 40 years old, yet can hear this drastic change on a centimeter of wire?  Plus, do you have an ability to recreate the exact position of your head and noise floor 200 hours ago while remembering exactly what you heard.  If so, you should apply for the next Xman movie...just like Synergistic Research should win a Nobel prize if their claims were legitimate.

How about you guys stop pretending to have superpowers and misleading people to buy ripoff products.

Step back and look at how ridiculous it is to spend this much time posting about a synergistic research fuse.  If you don't see how ridiculous it is, then...ok...I have a lavender fuse that sounds awesome after just .0001 seconds.  I'll be happy to sell them for the same price as SR at RMAF.  Anyone going to be there and want to blind test them against your SR?

Interesting that someone would take the time to chatter on for five paragraphs with nothing but diddle and accuse others of being ridiculous.  

1.  As for me, I listen to my system every evening and most early mornings. I post on the Audiogon site usually late at night. 

2.  Open up their products?  Oh yeah, I open up $3000 power cords all the time. And breaking $120.00 fuses is a lot of fun too.
      a.  Yes, I have talked to plenty of audio insiders. A few happen to be good friends of mine.
      b.   Yes, I've seen A/B tests at the shows. The latest one was the         Synergistic Research demo room at the recent Newport show. Chicanery?  Nope, just simply drop dead amazing.

3.   Break in?  Even my custom Originlive turntable belt had a break in period of a few hours. Quite the amazing experience. Sounded good right off the bat, but then it started opening up at about an hour in ... then, wow!

4.  Yes, I'm over 40 years old. In fact, in another hour and 45 minutes I'll be celebrating my 78th birthday. And yes, I can hear the break in process in the SR Black fuses. Quite remarkable, really. Just call me Xman. 

5.  I'll be the first one to vote in favor of the Nobel prize for Synergistic Research and Ted Denny specifically. Brilliant. 

6.  Who's misleading whom here?  How can one be misled when there is a 30 day money back guarantee on all products sold by SR? 

7.  Hopefully, you will now put me on your ignore list .... Adios Amigo. And what ever you do, do not try any of these products. Just pass Go and remain in the dark with the smugness that you know what is best even though you wont' try that which you ridicule. . 

OP

Happy Birthday, OP.  I just ordered Black fuses for mains in ARC mono blocks and also for Wadia 861SE player. When I first upgraded the main fuse in my Wadia some years ago, I found a HiFi Tuning fuse already there. This was part of the GNSC Reference or Statement level mod--I had both done over the years--it was a short drive to Steve Huntley's place.  

Helo everybody
thanks OPFor that interesting thread. I replaced my HFT Supreme in the pre. First I tried a SR Red with great success before the new Black became available. I read all the posts of this thread and finally bought Audio Magic Beeswax that the Cable Co said to be more "organic" (this word seems to be always glues with the Beseswax). 
I am very satisfied with the AM but ask still ask me how does it compares to the Black SR. 
Not much on the web about users comment on the net. Does anybody here have compared both ?
