synergistic research orange blue fuse direction.

@guyt,

Please excuse georgehifi post. For whatever reason, the fuse threads interferes with George’s ability to make any intelligent dialogue. Boutique fuses are poor Georgie’s kryptonite 😎

Back to your question, insert one fuse at a time. Then start listening to the music. Swap direction of the fuse and listen again, keep the direction that sounds best to your ears.

Ok thanks.   I was hoping that someone has used the fuses with Mac amps and could give instructions on orientation of the fuse in the amp respective to the markings on the fuse.  You would think that SR would give instructions that were more suited for ignorant people like myself. Thank you for your input.

I am sure another MAC user with SR fuses will chime in. Unfortunately, none of the fuses I know of comes with instructions. IME, one direction will sound more detailed. 

SR has directions that specify the direction of current left right and the fuses are marked left right.  I find it all very confusing.  Thanks for your input.

The difference is not subtle, not at all. In my amp, because of where it goes its impossible to tell which way current goes anyway. So 50/50, stuck it in. Right away noticed big improvement, yet it just did not sound right. Deeper, wider, more dynamic, but somehow messed up. Hard to describe. It got better but within a few minutes I knew it was wrong. Switched direction, night and day.

To think there are people unable to hear such obvious differences, well it just boggles my mind. Especially to then brag to the world: Hey world! I’m deaf! Deaf as a doorknob! And yet, there they go. We should set up a foundation, raise some money, see if we can find a cure.

Meantime listen, flip, listen. You will hear it. Assuming of course you’re not the doorknob.
