Could the
varying opinions in concern of the SR fuse sound have anything to do with a
quality control issue? How and why these fuses can be so "hit or miss" would
lead me to believe so. Maybe an SR rep could chime in here,adding some technical
merit to the convo. At least it could clear up some thoughts on the matter of
why there is such a sound discrepancy,especially when the fuses are being
used in some same exact components.
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
I installed a SR RED Quantum fuse in my ARC REF-3 preamp a few days ago, replacing an older high end fuse. Uhh ... for a hundred bucks, this little baby is well worth the cost. There was an immediate improvement upon installation, but now that its broken in (yes, no kidding), its quite remarkable. A tightening of the focus, a more solid image, and most important of all for my tastes, a deeper appreciation for the organic sound of the instruments. Damn! ... cellos sound great! Much improved attack on pianos. More humanistic on vocals. Bowed bass goes down forever. Next move? .... I'm doing the entire system with these fuses. One at a time though just to gauge the improvement in each piece of equipment. The REF-75se comes next. I'll report the results as the progression takes place. Stay tuned ...
