Synergistic Red Fuse ...

I'd say Geoff definitely passes the Turing test...

I burned in my Besswax fuse in the pre (260 hours).
 There is very notable musical enhancement. Of all the sound parameters the most noticable is an organic music that is at the same time shoking and relaxing as if you were assured that this is like the music should be. 
Organic is the word that comes to mind. Lots of details but all in a coherent and realistic way. 
There is now a new version of the Beeswax (the SHD) that is said by Peter Hansen (Cable Co) to be a significative step beyond.
I will try it soon in my pre. (If someone is interested in a classic little ued Beeswax 6x32 mm 1,5A slow blow at good price please let me know).
I also have SR Black in my amps that are near 60 hours now. They are great also. Maybe more spectacular in bass boom and spectacular scene and many other things that have descibed at long in this thread. They still need to burn in until at least 100 hours before judging them definitely.
Both products are great and I made the choice of mixing both but it is an arbitrary choice only empirical. An hypothesis that both could combine.
Please forgive my english as it is not my native language.

barbapapa:
Thank you for posting your results using the Audio Magic Beeswax fuse.
I do think the Synergistic Research Black fuses and (now with your report) the A.M. Beeswax fuses are the top performing fuses available for audio equipment.

From a practical standpoint the Synergistic Research 30 day return policy allows one to audition what a fuse can do to the sonics of their system with the peace of mind that if they do not like the change they can get their money back.

My systems have been upgraded to all SR Black fuses for many hundreds of hours of listening pleasure. I would not want to go back to the fuses available in 2012 such as the Isoclean or Furutech. And these fuses were a step better than the original stock fuses supplied by the equipment manufacturers.

You had question about the makeup of the Von Gaylord IC/s, I contacted Ray, and here's what he sent:

"The 7000s IC is designed with Silver, Copper, and Alloy.

The Cable comes in two different version : Shielded and non-shielded

Shielded version is designed for sensitive system. (easy pick up " Hum )"

Take care ...

if I recall correctly Audio Magic offers a 60 day return policy. That’s an even more practical standpoint, eh? In fact, and I yes I know we’ve been over this before, everyone and his brother offers a 30 day return policy. So in and of itself that policy you constantly mention is no advantage, you know, per se. when I say you constantly mention, this is what I'm referring to:

"Finally they are one of the few companies that allow and encourage a 30 day trial."
