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!

Conclusions with no science or facts to back them up are merely opinions and everybody has one of those. Especially audiophiles when it comes to what sounds good, better , best. Not to mention those who function primarily as salespersons. Whoever they might be. No way to know for sure except they quack like a salesman.

It's all fun until you have a rectifier tube go out and it blows your fuse.

Here we go again with the denigration of salespeople. Interesting that those who show such a lack of respect for those on the front line of the economy, those who make the capitalistic system rock & roll, have never spent one day of their lives in the shoes of a professional salesperson. 

I think I'll be trying a good bottle of Mezcal. I'll look for one without the worm. 

On a side note ... are we Italians considered to be "Gringos?"

Actually I was a salesman for a good 4-5 years way back (Tech Hifi, Radio Shack, Lafayette Radio...many fuses sold/installed/replaced) and I did not denigrate salesmen. Salesmen are properly named and just doing their job which is to sell stuff.

Don’t know why people who favor fuses are so thin skinned. Can you imagine if everyone jumped the shark here whenever someone else had a differing opinion?

Any how, I have nothing new to add about fuses that has not already been said so off to greener pastures......

They feel guilty and have to continually justify them selves, over their snake oil beliefs they are trying to spread, or they work on a quota system with SR.
