Synergistic Red Fuse ...
marqmike: I look forward to your report on the changes in sound with upgrading the fuse in your DAC. With the Antelope DAC, it was interesting that changing the fuse on both the hot side and the fuse on the neutral side made an improvement. I hope you are able to leave the DAC on 24/7. According to the Antelope DAC developer, a DAC clock needs to be on three days to reach final sonic stabilization. David Pritchard |
I put my black fuse in my sim audio moon 300d v2 dac. Already had a red in my power amplifier and cd transport. I put them in those first because I thought if the hi end fuse would help much it would the amp and cd transport. And it turned out to be right, not me, but synergistic recommended that. My system sounded great before but I had played with straight silver wire in my fuse holders and noticed a improvement, not big, but noticable. Now I know from the reds it will change as they go through their fuse menopause, but right now I feel this, a black in the dac, is the bigger change in my system. Oregonpapa thanks for the heads up on the hft's. Sounds like a good late fall/winter project. It will probably take that long for the fuse to fully settle in. I will probably post again in a few weeks to gaga over what will surely happen. I know Wolfe will want to hear about it. |
^^^ marqmike ... Nice to hear that the fuses are working out for you. The Black fuses are really amazing. For an extra 20 bucks they are a no-brainer over the Red fuses. On the SR HFT's ... How these little things do what they do is a mystery to me. How can something so tiny affect room feedback so significantly? When I placed the ten-pack around the room as directed, then dialed in the first tune on the stereo, I was in disbelief. The HFT's are NOT subtle at all. So, I was thinking about upgrading my wall outlet next. The SR Black is available here: http://highend-electronics.com/products/synergistic-research-black-uef-duplex-receptacle But then Furutech just came out with an upgraded version of their GTX DR: http://highend-electronics.com/products/furutech-gtx-dr-ncf-high-end-performance-duplex-receptacle Maybe David can give some valuable input on the subject.

I recently acquired another ten-pack of HFTs via AG and used most of them on my very modest speakers and a few more on USB cable ends, pushing me to a stage five install or beyond (sounds a bit like Scientology, don't it?). I am so enjoying Patricia Barber's "Nightclub" right now. Extended,very well-defined bass, vanishing noise floor, open top-end with a great sense of space, and a glorious shimmer, ring and detail on the cymbals.... |
