Synergistic Red Fuse ...

" As I, and others have pointed out in a number of past threads, the ability of a system to resolve hardware difference does not necessarily go hand ii hand in hand with musical resolution or its sonic quality."

My response is that the ability of a electronic components to resolve information of all types is always dependent on the quality of their power supplies.y experience is that, in a properly functioning system, any change in the power supply is clearly audible. Some changes are pro-found, others may be more subtle, but they are always audible. The Synergistic Research is a "MAJOR UPGRADE" to the power supplies of all audio amplifiers. In fact " THIS UPGRADE NECESSARILY GO HAND IN HAND WITH MUSICAL
RESOLUTION AND SONIC QUALITY"

There is good reason for the popularity of this red fuse thread. It provides a path for audiophiles, with little or no technical skills, to make massive improvements to their system for relatively small outlays. It is my belief that installation of  black fuses, at a cost of $120 each, will provide improvements similar to many modifications costing in excess of $1000.

If you are serious about making a contribution to this thread, I suggest you replace the fuses in the power supply of one of your components, with Synergistic black fuses and POST THE RESULTS IN THIS THREAD.

"Yes and there is probably now someone out there who believes that if they do not hear a difference with these things it means their system is not good enough"

That is exactly what I am saying. Not all so called "systems" are good enough. This of course is not a problem if someone is happy with the sound of their system.  It becomes a problem only when that someone is giving "advice" on a daily basis to many who are in dire need of sound advice and assistance. 

Much has been made of the SR fuses being able to make ANY piece of gear sound better, and SR demonstrated this by using one in a little Bose radio thing and claimed to improve it, so asking me to open my private world with pics of my listening room is just another weak stab at my credibility and privacy which I tend to want to protect (maybe not my credibility as that is subjective, and likely too late for much of this crowd)…I can say that my system obviously uses components I like, tubes and otherwise, and works for my tastes, just like anybody else’s. In my test of the SR black fuses I used my well sorted home system to test the things as I wouldn’t risk my pro gear in a live sound situation since the SR fuses do seem to blow much more easily than other fuses I’ve used. Regarding the little "transducer" gizmos, I’m unlikely to borrow any of those or spend the time (and the $7) it would take to make some for myself, and my life long professional and personal experience of understanding acoustics to some degree informs my opinion (bias?) that these things are just silly. I will say again that the SR business model is brilliant: Simply design items whose technology regarding development and use is never explained in actual technical terms, place them in a market that accepts unproven or rationally and scientifically tested accessories, and charge a boatload of money for this stuff to give it perceived value. Damn…where’s my Dremmel tool...
