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 ...

Any comments from anyone else who has tried these fuses?

I hope you will be able to try The Synergistic Research ECT's (Electronic Circuit Transducers) on your 300B and 2A3 amps. I am very happy with the sonic enhancement I am hearing with the ECT's on my PX-25 amp, Type 45 tube amp and the recently purchased 300B amp.

Today "nmmusician" in the Misc.  forum suggested a Synergistic Research HFT (High Frequency Transducer) be placed on top of the Rectifier tube.
Having a spare HFT on hand I decided to give it a try.

This simple tweak has really brought forth a fuller and more emotional sounding music using the 300B amp. A fun and exciting experiment. And no 150 hour break in to endure! It either works or it does not.

A  HUGE THANK YOU - to "nmmusician".

Hey…why hasn't anybody posted anything in two days about SR's imaginary and unexplainable patently useless over hyped tweaks? Is the momentum gone? Has every naive Magic Tweak Seeker given up? Come on people, SR needs that money! Hype isn't free (except in this forum)! Maybe nonsense is on a summer break...

Ok Wolfe. It is nice to hear you have missed the praising of synergestic and Ted Denny. Me to.  I have been holding back. But here you go. The 2 synergistic reds I have put in made an improvement in my system on the order on living on Vermont place and moving to park place on the monopoly board.  And speaking of monopoly my experience with these fuses tells me synergistic must have the monopoly on all that.stuff we are calling hype. Anyway if the black fuses improve anything more, which has been verified by a margine of 25 to one on this thread, I  think we could trust synergestic to rule the audio world. You shoud have one of the musicians record something to that effect,  you writing the high praise for them to put the music to of course. Maybe the audio mags will make the black fuse not just the buget audio product of the year but the audio product of all time in the past into all the future.
