Something For The Fuse Guys ...

There are fuses, and then, there are fuses. 

I'm evaluating some prototype fuses that I received in the mail three days ago. 

Over the past few years, I've used fuses from five different manufacturers. The last three were the Red, Black and Blue fuses from Synergistic Research. Each one incrementally improved the sound of my system. My favorite so far was the SR Blue. 

The prototype fuses being evaluated presently raises the SQ beyond all of the others mentioned above. The major improvement to my ears is better tonal accuracy. Instruments and voices are more life-like. The noise is reduced allowing for a more solid 3-D presentation with the musicians more solidly presented on the sound stage. Overall, more information is fleshed out of CDs and LPs. 

The manufacturer, the price and the name of the prototype fuses will come later. I don't have the information thus far. My understanding is, if all works out, the release date is to be mid-October. 

Stay tuned ...

geoffkait,

As usual, I am as serious as an equivocal colonoscopy result.

WM-F 107 even came in green. Tape going in determined direction, no fuse, off the grid, and already green-magic-markered. What else could you want?

The only problem you may encounter is that it is hard to find one in good condition these days. Not to go too much into details, but WM-F 107 was hard to keep. It often self-destroyed.

Those who cannot hear the increase in SQ that magic fuses allegedly provide are hearing exactly what they provide, and that's absolutely nothing.

Get a new horse. You've beaten the old one to death.

What I’m afraid of is that some serious limitations to and ineffectiveness of our education system is being exposed here for all to see. Not only was there a failure to learn much of anything the first time around but, if I may be so bold, there appears to be a deeply ingrained resistance to or inability to learn anything new.
