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 ...

You have been told by so many known techs here with electronic knowledge that’s beyond your pay grade, that your telling the non technical members here to do something dangerous with these mains fuses, it's only time before someone gets hurt.
Plus your much more than just a SR fuse junkie as well, as you push anything else voodoo SR makes, it’s funny that you hardly mention other brands in the same glowing "light" as the SR products you hammer home here on Audiogon.?
It’s all there in your history, if members want to search.
The only one with a "darkened soul" is you.

Start doing some serious soul-searching, George. You'll be a better man for it.

You and your "shiller" need to take a long look at yourselves and look at your own souls, don’t worry about mine it’s clear.

Pushing the non technical members here, some that can’t even change a tap washer, to open their their equipment up and go inside start playing around with mains fuses that could injure them or worse.

All because your saying they are going to find the "Holly Grail" of audio if they change their perfectly good 20c mains fuses and replace them with these $150 voodoo ones. More likely they will find the Holly Ghost instead.

There’s a reason they say this on the back of audio equipment, and it’s not for a joke mate.

Uhh, George ... Most audio equipment has a fuse holder on the outside rear of the unit. It is a simple operation to release the holder, remove the old fuse, install the new fuse, then replace the holder. It certainly doesn't require an EE degree to accomplish the feat. The only talent it takes is for the user to remember ... "leftie/loosie ... righty/tightie." 

By the way, why so much animosity in your posts, George? The audio hobby is a fun hobby, remember?

Take care ...
