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?

---not quite accurate that--- omits all complaints...
Thankfully,
knowledgeable,perceptive and Honest Audiophiles have clarifie that this 'talk' or should I say "cheap promotion" of Synergistic Red fuses and Synergistic Quantum Black fuses was the spewing of "nonsense"  from the beginning.  geogelofi analysed it all very nicely and summed it up it very succinctly, in an intelligent and balanced comment --
" I just don't get shysters, preaching this sort of voodoo".

^^^ Yes, I agree ... an ignore feature would be the best thing since sliced fuses.
