SR Blue Fuses

I just wanted to share my excitement with my SR Blue Fuses. I installed 3 in my Anthem I225. Its been probably 100 hours of burn in time now and I really am beside myself in the difference. The bass is really full, my highs are nicely extended and my soundstage is huge. Just today, my soundstage became ridiculous.
If you are happy with your current amplifier / preamplifier and intend on keeping it for awhile I highly recommend replacing the fuses with SR Blue fuses, if not the Orange fuses. I got my Blues for 30% off. It is quite possibly the best tweak I have done aside from room treatments.

It takes awhile to burn the fuses in but once they are, it’s pretty awesome the difference they make. I was pretty skeptical about this mod and thought it was a lot to spend but now that I have, it was the best $400 mod I have done. It made more of a difference than my upgraded power cords and actually probably made a more of a difference than going from my signal cable silver res speaker cables to my ap solo crystals.

Highly recommended if you already love your amp/preamp and intend to keep them for awhile!

There is no such thing as "good" mezcal. Its the cheapest rotgut in all of Mexico. What this shows beyond a shadow of a doubt, you know zip about audio and even less about alcohol.

If you like what the Blue does their ECT and HFT
And here we go, wondered when the "SR snake oil" band wagon would start a rolling again

So what is the deal? Is there some sort of super conductive stuff on/in these fuses? What makes them so good. I use ACMEs with graphene and a few other paste concoctions, I've whipped up.
I also polish the heck out of the contact areas and clean clean clean, before application.

I've never heard a difference, but I was doing it as a preventative, measure, nothing else. The fuse in most cases were still completing a circuit between two pieces of copper, go figure, why I didn't hear a difference? BUT I've taken out some pretty crusty fuse holders and fuses, that really did make a difference. I've eliminated a TON in old speaker designs. Night and day, in SQ of some.. because of a sagging ol fuses.

My mono amps (MFA M75) have a fuse on the mains and a fuse on the B+. I'm using an orange for the mains and a blue on the B+. Very nice combination!
