If you do not have a well treated room, go for the HFT's first. They make the biggest improvements in rooms that have sonic issues.
HFTs or more fuses
I just put Synergistic Reds in my DAC and pre. My retirement budget only allows for my next purchase to be either Synergistic Blacks for my monoblocks or the HFTs for my room, not both. Can someone tell me, from their experience, which acquisition made the bigger improvement in their system?

If you decide on HFT, checkout Audio Magic Bells.
They replaced my 3 packs of HFTs. Better tone, more effective, less expensive ... Audio Magic Bells |
If you have just got the red fuses, do they have a 30day trial. It might be more worthwhile to get the black fuse to try as it seems to suggest that they are much improved over the Reds. As for HFT's, placement and knowing your room , effects of sound and room treatments will key to obtain the greatest benefits or notice not much. The HFT's are effective but a knowledge is required. Not knowing how your room is, otherwise, changing the fuses might be a more greater improvement - more like changing up a to higher level cable of the same manufacturer. |
Purchased my Reds from Parts Connexion and there is no 30 day return. My room is funky basement room with only drywall on left wall. Front and right are poured masonry. I've treated the room with a Room Tune pack and a number of 2'x4' acoustic panels with good results. Think I will put Black fuses in my monos and call it quits. Pretty sure wife will have me committed if I start hanging Bells or HFTs all over the walls. Thanks for everyone's input. |
