Synergistic Research Purple UEF Duplex - receptacle


I just saw Synergistic Research (SR) released a Purple UEF Duplex receptacle. I was wondering if anyone has been able to test one, and if so,  does it have the same sonic impact as the SR Purple fuses. Personally, I use Quantum Science Audio (QSA) fuses and have been very pleased with all the different levels I’ve bought and tested. I bought two Purple fuses and returned them because I thought the QSA Yellow sounded better in my system. I liked the SR Purple a lot but they did not have the detail the QSA fuse brought to my system. Since then, I’ve upgraded to QSA Violet fuse in my Atoll IN300 and it is less bright, way more detailed with improved soundstage and separation over. 
 

I was thinking about buying the QSA Red receptacle but after seeing the new SR Purple receptacle (which is about $500 cheaper) I became intrigued. So my question is, has anyone tested the SR Purple receptacle, and if so, how do you like it? 
 

thanks for your time and consideration.

@mijostyn it drives you nuts, but you still felt compelled to click on the clearly marked thread. Now there's a psychological conundrum 👍

@stevebohnii Hi, interested to read you’d replaced the fuse in your Atoll IN300; I’m currently settling in a new IN200 Signature, and was wondering, with a view to replacing the IEC inlet fuse, what the rating of the stock fuse was? If that’s the fuse you replaced.

I’ve not read/seen any reviews re: the IN300 so not sure of its general sonic character, but the 200 has a touch of lift in the Mids, which is fine for me, but I don’t want to exaggerate this any further. I currently use QSA Light Blue fuses in all of my mains plugs (I’m in the UK 😏) but I’ve read the QSA Yellow is a little bright, which I want to avoid. The QSA Violet is more than I want to spend, so I’m toying with the idea of SR Orange or Purple. I’d be grateful for your thoughts on this idea in relation to the Atoll

EDIT: I had emailed Atoll in France to enquire about the IEC inlet fuse, not really expecting a reply, but I've just received a response: the IN200 fuse is an 8amp 5x20mm slow blow. 

 

Thanks very much

Kindest Regards
