Synergistic Red Fuse ...

nyname, OK here is a brief summary of where I stand on the topic of SR fuses.
 
 I tried a donated Red Fuse and heard little if any difference.

I do not think all fuses are created equal.

I also tend to agree with Wolf’s assessment of SR and its marketing strategy in general.

I have been an "audiophile" for 40 years myself and have found little value in genral in very expensive tweaks marketed specifically to audiophiles compared to other comparable high quality products. I tend to look towards pro audio companies for my tweaks, not "high end audio" as represented on this site.

For amps, speakers, and other more technically complex devices, I may and have.

I have heard vendors in person reference threads on this site to promote their products and even refer to specific threads as theirs despite denials by participants of having any association.    So I am  more skeptical than I might be otherwise that some threads here are not used as free advertising.   I'm not saying this one is but its not a stretch to think some might form that opinion.

There it is!  "I’ve been an audiophile for 40 years and...." Another dime for me.

Geez, Pro Audio has tweaks?! Like what, pray tell? Say it isn’t so. This explains a lot. ;-)

Mapman ...

Yes, Wolfie claims he's tried the Black fuses. Fine. But he also "knows" that the HFT room treatments don't work. He hasn't experienced them in his system though. That's the amazing hearing acumen I was referring to.  Geeze, he's even been to the Chinese factory where they're made and he's inspected the drill press used to make the darned things. I'm tellin' ya ... the guy's not only a genius but a world traveler to boot.  Amazing, no?

OP

Speaking of the Black Fuse, and some concrete information, this is for grasshopper:

"The Synergistic Research BLACK Quantum Fuse is by far Synergistic's highest performance fuse to date. Introducing Synergistic Research BLACK featuring a patent pending UEF coating and Graphene with 8 million times the conductive density of copper.

In addition to the new material Graphene used and the UEF coating the BLACK Fuses are treated with 2 Million volts of electricity in a process SR calls Quantum Tunneling that alters the conductor at a molecular level for optimum performance."

no goats, no glory

To whom it may concern

Because I am a contributor to this thread dealing with a product marketed by Synergistic Research, I have decided to list some of my equipment so that readers can see the extent of my involvement with Synergistic Research. I am doing this because I believe (I might be wrong) there a lot of the skepticism attached to many products marketed by Synergistic Research.

Power Cables:              Home made (4)
                                      Audience     (2)
                                     High Diamond    (1)

Interconnect Cables:       Audioquest "Chetah"  
                                        High Diamond "Platinum"

Loudspeaker:                 Synergistic Research  "Element Copper"

Grounding Block:           Synergistic Research

Fuses:                            Synergistic Research - "RED" 4
                                        Synergistic Research - "BLACK" 3    

It is not my policy to use cable looms from any single manufacturer. I will      audition cables from three credible manufacturers and Purchase the one that gives the best results at that particular location. For example, I am will probably purchase an interconnect later this year to replace the 10 year Audioquest Cheetah between my Sony SACD Player and my McCormack LD 2 preamp. My budget is to not exceed $2000.  I will audition Audioquest 'Wind", Synergistic Research "Atmosphere level 3" and also another Wywires "Platinum" interconnect.
