Synergistic Red Fuse ...
Got this from another site: Interesting observation relayed from Warren Gehl about fuses in ARC gear in this month's letter section of Audio Beat |
A friend of mine just returned from CES and says during a discussion with the Founder of Absolare Audio (Amps,preamps etc.) he's very aware of and impressed with the SR Reds. A number of manufacturers acknowledge the improvement derived from premium fuses. Pretty obvious to me if you take the time to listen to them. No different than rolling various types of tubes in my experience. The impact is similar and sometimes even greater. Charles, |
I have about four or five hours on a
Synergistic Research "RED" fuse in my amp. Very worthwhile improvement a great value. Don't judge it right away the break-in is kinda odd in my case after about twenty minutes things improved dramatically. In a couple of weeks I may swap it end to end see if that changes for the better. I'm inclined to just leave it alone it sounds so good as it it. Thank you for suggesting this and all the comments too. Who would have thought a silly little fuse could affect things like that. Will soon order another for the CDP. |
I have used both Brands: Isoclean and Synergistic Red. I will be interested to hear your comments after 25 hours on the RED. For me they both improved the sound initally but with further break in- the RED continued to improve to a greater degree. Also after some break in time it is worth the effort to reverse the fuse direction to see if there is further improvement. David Pritchard |
