Synergistic Red Fuse ...

David and Frank, 
It's seems we all have very similar musical tastes, I've owned that Jessica Williams CD for quite some time and agree with your impressions. 
Frank, I'm really looking forward to reading your SR power cable listening experiences. 
Charles, 

I have notice changes in my SRB fuses after 300 hours, especially on my CD Player and Tube Power supply and it's possibly due to the small amount of power that these components draw.

But I noticed on the CDs that I've been listening to for weeks that images has shifted toward the inside of the left speaker with more depth. Maybe my next upgrade will be the SR ECTs inside my CD Player...

The Synergistic Research Electronic Circuit Transducers (ECT) definitely have an effect on my Marantz SA11-S2 SACD player. I have about 7 in the SACD player and 8 on the tube amp. You can over do it and you can also put them in places where the sound gets worse. But after trial and error  (following Synergistic Research Guidelines) you can be rewarded with a much improved sound from the CD player or DAC.

I used a stick of Blue Stick from Home Depot to afix the ECT's temporarily while deciding where the best locations were. A good spot seemed to trigger a sense of more music or better focus. A bad location would trigger a sense of loss of music or emotional impact.

I like the ECT's a lot . They can be removed and used on the next piece of equipment when you get upgradeitis. Although since I have been using ECT's , upgradeitis does not seem to ocurr as often. The potential downside is they are not a plug and play but rather an install and evaluate.

Personally, I enjoyed the installation journey to sonic improvement.

For those interested, I've started a new thread in the "Cables" form to chronicle my experiences with the new Synergistic Research Atmosphere Power Cords.

Please feel free to comment. No Debbie Downers or Negative Nellie's need to comment though. :-) 

After two weeks my first SR black arrived.  I installed it in my Coincident line stage, where it replaced a stock fuse.  I did not detect any of the brightness or hard edge reported by others.  I noticed a modest increase in resolution as judged by the clarity of the German in Schutz's Die Sieben Worte.  A more significant increase in tonal beauty was noted.  It was one of those deals where you start running through music you hadn't heard in a while, because you just didn't want to stop listening. I suspected their might be a hint of increased air, but it wasn't more than a hint.  Soundstage and imaging were inconclusive.

I did not attempt to reverse the direction yet.  I plan on leaving the preamp powered up today and letting it idle.

Wig, I plan on replacing the fuses in my PS 9.0 and HAPZ1 next.  I hope the results parallel your experience with your MW Sony.  If all goes as expected with the preamp fuse, I will probably place an order for the source fuses in a couple weeks.
