The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses

Hi Frank,

Wow, when I first stumbled upon Audiogon I was struck how such nasty comments were coming from middle aged men (which is a misnomer). Or should I say men who are closer to there end times in age and bully others like spoiled children with nothing else better to do.

You would think as we get older we have learned to treat each other with old school courtesies and respect. The same courtesies and respect that we have tried to teach our kids.

Some say you should ignore comments like that. I could not.

That was probably one of the lowest things I’ve seen here yet. Not only will I be buying SR Purp(le) fuse(s), I also will be buying some of Ted’s other products as well. Such as his power cords.

With so many hobbies to choose from, I do not understand why people who cannot hear the difference between most things in a stereo choose High End audio as a hobby in the first place. I mean if you can’t trust your own ears, how do you know a pair of Wilson speakers sounds any better than a Bose Wave Radio? Or if human hearing is so insensitive that it can’t discern differences in what it is that makes up a stereo, why spend good money on a high-end stereo in the first place? And what I have the greatest difficulty understanding, is why people who don’t hear differences care about what people think who do hear differences. When did we become a society bent on making those whose opinions are different from ours conform to our way of thinking? It's very odd.

Yours in music,

Empirical observation is the basis for scientific learning. Instruments have to be constantly calibrated. The combination of man’s senses (hearing) plus his (or her) brain are one of the most powerful measuring devices on the planet.

oregonpapa,

Frank, or for that matter anyone,  have you tried the NPS-1260 on the purple fuse?

No, I haven't. I have a couple of tubes of TC left and haven't tried that either. I know that some folks here are using the NPS-1260 and like it a lot. The problem is, I have TC everywhere except for the new fuses.
