Synergistic Red Fuse ...

Charles 1:
I hope you are able to first install the Synergistic Research RED fuse in the DAC and then Install the Afterburner A/C outlet.
I gentle reminder when changing the A/C outlet, circuit breaker turned to off and take the time to clean those household wires.
We do not need any shocking results!

I have spent a lot of time investigating the WA Quantum Chips. They certainly do cause a sonic change. For me they tend to give me a sense of subtraction. A sense of hearing detail but at the expense of feeling emotion. They are not expensive and can be returned after a trial.
I am left with a total of one in place on a non user replacable fuse.

I have had better results with the Synergistic Research ECT (electronic circuit transducers) on or near fuses. But more expensive.

Both products have an immediate effect but take about 24 hours to fully settle in.

I had to remove the three RED fuses in order to install the WA chips. After replacing, everything needed to settle in again. After the system was on for a few hours, it just came to life. You comment about a "sense of subtraction" was right on. Much more inner detail with the chips, but not in an etched sort of way at all. Just closer to the music. More organic. More emotionally impactful. 

Once I have the CD player operating with the RED fuses and WA chips, I'll move on and try the ECT's. From what I've read online, these make more difference than the fuses and chips. Has that been your experience as well.??

I trust Charles' ears and may try these fuses, but this company's quantum chips simply have to be a placebo (and make me distrust them more generally).  They make big ones to slap on the sides of your speaker cabinets for god's sake.  Only $130 a chip to make your speakers look horrible.  Standard arguments aside, there simply isn't a mechanism by which these speaker chips could work, besides the extremely well-established psychological one. 

^^^ That's what they used to say about cables, speaker spikes and removable power cords.

I assume, Charles, that you've tried all the sizes of WA chips in your own system before making your judgement though, right? 

Don't get me wrong here, Charles. I understand your skepticism. I bought the fuses and chips with full knowledge of the distributor's money back guarantee. 

I'm not sending them back. 

One of the best places for a WA Cable Chip after much experimentation is wrapped around the house AC wire for the audio circuit as it comes into the circuit breaker on the breaker box. I also am a big fan of the WA Inductor Chip adjacent to the transducer of each headphone.
