Fuses that matter.

>>Avatar is the AMR North American distributor that I contacted. Still no reply.

Ditto, after sending a couple of reminder emails and voice mails I gave up and ordered Liquid Nanos, hopefully bettering my HiFi Supremes.

Interesting, I thought they only blow one off inquiring warranty work.

Marqmike, from my experience, Liquid Nanos adds a bloom to the sound compared to Supremes that is advantageous in some systems.

Still no reply from Avatar(AMR), so the Supreme fuses went back in.
I had forgotten what they contributed to my enjoyment.
Took the WA chips off the stock fuses and re-applied to the Supremes.Don't do this too many times,less sticky each time you re-place them.

To sum up, until I can source some AMR fuses( slo blo-large size-.5 amp, and 5amp-two of each), the Supremes reign supreme in my system.

Going from stcok WA chipped fuse to WA chip Supremes was like changing to a nice tube amp from a decent solid state amp.

Or, I could say, it made my tube amps sound like better tube amps.

Lacee,

I found that the chips didn't want to stay wrapped around the fuses. So I bought a chip for each fuse, put them on the fuses and then placed scotch tape over them to hold them down.

At only $9.00 a piece, I thought going that route was easier than trying to apply and reapply the chips.

As far a receiving a response from Avatar, I'll email Darren and Bonnie and let them know about all of this.

Update

AMR: I called again to Avatar and had a nice chat with Darren. Turned out they were very (or too) busy prepping for the CES last couple of weeks and Debbie had an mid-ear infection. So finally the fuses are ordered and on their way. Lacee, you may want to give them another or final try (or wait till CES is over).

Liquid Nano (got the recent generation of grey liquid, supposed to be better sounding according to Jerry): much better, IME, than the HiFi Gold and IsoClean, not sure they will replace the HiFi Supreme for now; indeed a tad bloomy.

May order some Synergistic to close off this round of comparison for myself.

Avatar/AMR got back to me.
I will be ordering fuses for my amps and for some of my friends.

I'll post again with my impressions compared to Supreme fuses, and with their impressions compared to stock fuses.
