Audiophile fuses - Synergistic Black fuses vs the còmpetition

Between friends samples and onew I havd bought I find that these Synergistic fuses to be the best balanced. And without question inner detail .I originally had Hifi tunING supreme.which are good  but not in the SR class 
The Audio horizon I found more tipped up compared in certain areas furutech were no where's as detailed . The SR  Black fuses use the latest in Graphene  technology everyone from Nasa 
To the latest hi tech 3d printing and many 1,000s denser then Copper.Silver or Platinum.
All super computers are now using and soon home computers it is much faster and accurate.
But also smoother and more organic sounding parts connecxion if you purchase at least 3 or more 
May give you a respectable discount. Email Chris the owner at Tech go to the site . Lucky I only had 5 in my system. One thjng that was surprising is that I put one in my JL audio  Subwoofer  thd bass was noticeably more accurate and articulate.  2 thjngs to mention .these fuses take up to 200 hours to fully runin.but after 100 hrs 90% of the runin  is complete, also  Always go up to the next size ,for standard cheap steel fuses can vary up to 15%,where these fuses are typically within 
1%.  I found that no fuses popped .on a Modwright pre I popped 2 , then went from 2 to 2.5A
No problems and Make sure you get proper  slow-timed ,or Fast blow. A No Brainer like a very good cable upgrade and comes with a 30 day money back guarantee.

Re fuse tolerances, from somewhere in cyberspace:

I mentioned earlier that the Black fuse sounded slightly more natural than the stock fuse. Trouble is that it failed after about two weeks. Must have been an incorrectly labeled fuse because defective fuses are very rare. I'll ask Synergistic about this and try to get a replacement.
Also, this fuse does not have the values imprinted on the end caps, like most fuses have.
Maybe tear off the black label and see if it's marked there ?

FWIW, I tried 2 SR fuses on my Aurender. I wanted them to be better but there was no increase in SQ to my ears so I returned them.

If there was no difference in SQ most likely you inserted the SR fuses in the wrong direction and the previous fuses were also in the wrong direction. Another possibility is that there's a mistake somewhere in your system that prevents fuse differences from being heard.
