Synergistic Red Fuse ...

OP the 78s I transferred were my parents mostly from around the early 1930’s. I heard and recall them when I was a kid and first fascinated with hifi and music on a variety of players from the 1950s.

What I hear now on my "good" system is not unlike what I heard then in terms of overall tonality (mostly midrange which makes for an interesting perspective on what is there given many things are not) but much more involving especially with my larger radial/omni OHM speaker based system since these speakers tend to make whatever comes through them sound like it is live in your room in terms of organic dimensional nature of the sound.

They are better than ever still even with more conventional speakers at work though.

I have one surviving 92 year old aunt in my family. I burned her a CD of these records from when she was a kid and she remembered them fondly and her face lit up when heard.

Highstream. I find that the SR black fuses increase the color and certainly the texture of instruments. The added detail and ambience give more life to the music, not just leading edge transients. Maybe in his system the SR fuses aren't working well.  

My nice clean ears are working fine, I rarely mix "Rock" shows these days doing mostly jazz, classical, and singer/songwriter stuff, and I doubt oregonpapa has attended those shows so he clearly has no clue what they sound like yet claims he does. For somebody as thin skinned as oregonpapa he sure gets riled up, and maybe shouldn't address questions to me directly since he claims to not care what I say. His impassioned and mocking responses make my point really. If you're secure in your position as shill for SR than the responses possibly should address questions specifically, instead of displaying a paranoid voodoo dance for the tribe. I have never speculated on the sound of any system other than my own, just simply pointed out the silliness of useless tweaks I've mostly tested or experienced myself, and have asked repeatedly if anybody knows why or how Magic Fuses work. Well, how do they work? (there…I asked again).  I understand of course that many claim SR fuses add specific improvements to their systems, and asking how that happens is a reasonable question anywhere but here. Ask it here and risk the wrath of whining strangers who are so invested in SR products that the response to any questioning of the efficacy of the stuff can cause knee jerk, mocking responses from the faithful, and no actual reasoned answers that aren't personal theories. My mind is always open to things that might actually work in audio, but it takes more than a bullying gang mentality to convince me that the magic is science and not snake oil.

The reasons Magic Fuses work have been posted many times. Have you tried using the Search function?
