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?

" Is anyone testing these fuses before installation. Is it necessary ?
Any advice would be appreciated "

"Simply buy several and remain near your gear with a fire extinguisher for a day or two just to be safe" 

There is absolutely no Statistical or technical reason to justify this advice. Let's be clear. This is a patently malicious statement published in a public forum with intent to do maximum harm to the reputation of Synergistic research. This is actionable behavior in a court of law. It is DEFAMATION.

Does anyone here know whether Audiogon has a policy designed to protect its members from this type of menace?  Does Audiogon have resources
to review his posts on this forums and make a decision on how to protect us from this deranged individual?

Surely there must be minimum standards of decorum.

In general, sarcasm, exaggeration, biting criticism, parody, etc., that a reasonable person can be expected to not take as literal truth, are not considered by the courts to be defamation.

However, referring to a member as "deranged" is a violation of Audiogon’s terms of service. Note that if you point to the lower right corner of any post a "report this" link will appear. If you click on it you will see that one of the reportable categories that is listed is "abusive towards another member."

Just FYI. Regards,
