Synergistic Research Purple UEF Duplex - receptacle

The Oyaide R1 and Furutech NCF series are reference receptacles. I suggested the Oyaide because that's what I use and have been very happy with them. It's also about half price of the Furutech once you include all the fittings.

I sincerely doubt that the Purple receptacle is better than these two but maybe it is, I'm not pulling my rack apart to find out.

If you want maximum detail in a fuse this is a detail monster. I have one in my power supply. Power House Zero 2 Extreme. They may be an offshoot of QSA, about $600 - my limit for fuses.

Hi Steve, No I haven't compared the Power House to QSA fuses as I said they are incredibly detailed, much more than SR Purple.

I think having more than one in a system would be too much.

Short answer: Buy an Oyaide R1 because purple fuse tech is based on graphene. Where do they put graphene in a receptacle?

Long answer: I have eight Purple fuses and have found them to be excellent and great value compared to QSA. Ted Denney even gives a generous discount occasionally with a no questions asked return policy. The only gripes people have had is that they are sensitive, so it's advisable to go up one rating. Additionally they are directional but not marked as such so it sometimes takes a few days to figure out which way to install.

HIFI Tuning fuses are also excellent value and not just for the budget conscience, they are great performers.

QSA on the other hand have, to my knowledge have not been very well received, and most people say that the Purple fuse is better than the QSA yellow.

SR will most likely bring out a new fuse in a year or two so I'll be glad I didn't spend a couple of grand on a fuse ; (
