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?

I believe he was referring to the very few who keep beating the drum of skepticism in a negative way.

They are the ones that are technical ones, and not voodoo drum beaters.

Please name and show any posts of any of the known technical member’s here on these forums, that back the things being said about what these $$$ fuses are doing amazing things for the sound, similar to what the voodoo’ist are saying, and the directional application of them.

Been there, done that. The technical explanations why fancy fuses outperform stock fuses has been provided ad nauseum by yours truly. Ad nauseum, you know, like your demands for them. 😀

Rule no. 1. Never give a technical explanation to a non technical person. It's goes whoosh!

Besides, this isn’t going to be another one of those I’ll show you my credentials if you show me yours debates, is it? 😁

Is it so hard??
All I ask is that you voodoo’ist name the members here who are highly technical, that back your findings of these $$$ mains fuses.
1: Being directional
2:That can magically escalate the sound quality of ones system.

George, you really don't get the whole Appeal to Authority thing, do you?

I just don't get shysters, preaching this sort of voodoo, like I said please.
