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?

What it is the difference between slow or fast blown fuse? Does have ant impact in sound?
Follow the owner's manual for your specific equipment. It will call for either a slow or fast blow fuse of one particular value.
I have Linn Numerik DAC, I have checked the manual, it mention about BS1362 5A fuse, it is not specified if it should be fast or slow. Also, I don't understand why it needs 5A fuse, it is a DAC, not an amplifier.
Thanks
