Synergistic Red Fuse ...

Fascination found by fuse fanciers, followed by the ubiquitous fractious, foisting their fractured, "facts." A pause, to proffer preferred recorded programs, and a descension into an alliteration altercation. Pity the poor audio pupil, trying to tap into truth through this tedium.

Wow, I came here to ask a serious question but instead I was surprised to read Geoff's post,

"We have testimony/evidence of fuses sounding different depending on direction from almost everyone who has actually listened,"

since I thought we settled the issue of testimony vs. fact last year.  
For example, there was testimony/evidence that witches were living in Salem MA years ago too and that didn't turn out so well, although it did lead to the phrase "witch hunt." 
Seriously Geoff, it is good to see you are healthy and still beating the directional drum as it relates to a 1.25-inch long piece of wire.
I am glad to be one of the "almost" in the "almost everyone" club because all that turning around of fuses would probably wear out both me and my fuse holders.

Let us know when you finally figure out the difference between evidence and proof. Also let us know when your hearing improves. Sorry to learn of your disability.

Geeze Geoff, 

"let us know when your hearing improves"

That one is so overused.  What's next, are you going to tell me my system is not resolving enough to display the life-changing sonic improvements that occur when one's fuses are oriented in the proper direction?  
Hey, isn't it about time for SR to debut a new colored fuse?
How about an iridescent, rainbow colored "Unicorn" fuse that, when installed by a breast-bearing virgin, will magically heal whatever ails your system and, when oriented with the horn pointed in the direction of photon travel, will never blow.....wait, "never blow" ok scratch that idea.  If SR wants to actually join the Unicorn Club, a lot of their fuses are going to have to blow. 

On a more serious note, has anyone here heard the Acme Audio Labs Silver Ceramic Fuse? You can purchase it  Cryogenically Treated with "Special Sauce" for $16 each, or $12 sans sauce.  Any opinions about this el-cheapo priced almost-audiophile fuse?  Is it at least 1/10 as good sounding as the SR Black, since it is 1/10 the price?

A cap guy here on AudioGon uses the Acme Labs and told me he likes them alot. Me, Myself and I use N52 magnets not fuses that are also Cryogenically Treated 2 times because I am a creature of excess. Tom
