NEW PROTOTYPE FUSES COMING >>>


I’ve been asked to evaluate/beta test some new fuses that will be coming out soon. I should have them as soon as this coming Saturday.

At this point:

1. I cannot reveal the name of the manufacturer of the fuses.
2. I do not know what the retail price will be.
3. I do not know what the name of the fuse will be.

For comparison purposes, I have a full complement of SR Orange fuses that can be used throughout the system. I have one QSA Yellow fuse now being used in my ARC-PH8 phono stage, with another one to arrive soon to be used in my ARC REF-75se.

I’ll be comparing the SR Orange fuses, and the QSA fuses, with the new prototype fuses. I’ll also be using the ears of three of my well-seasoned audiophile friends, as well as my own to make the evaluations. These guys are all truth-tellers that I have full confidence in.

According to the manufacturer, these new fuses are real game-changers, so stay tuned.

jetter ... I have a collection of investment quality Reds, Blacks, and Blues I would sell you at a good price if you're interested. Let me know if you want the PPT "Total Contact" left on or not.

 I'll be keeping the Orange ones to use as spares.

I put the final new prototype fuse in the amp this morning. So now the amp, preamp, and phono stage all have the new prototype fuses in them. I'll report back on the results later.

I have Mister Golden Ears coming over tomorrow to take a listen. Besides myself, he's the person most familiar with the system. He's a very critical listener. So, what I have planned is a listening session where we start out with all prototype fuses in place, then changing out the fuses in the preamp and amp for the QSA Yellow fuses. That should be a fair comparison. 

Stay  tuned ...

The primary effects of psychedelics like mushrooms and LSD are visual and breaking down the illusion of the ego. They do not for the most part affect the perception of sound. Not directly, anyway. You still hear everything as usual. It is more like you don't care as much, realizing you are the universe and all.

Gotta call BS on that. LSD affects all the senses. Perceptions are the same for all senses (in that they work as usual) but differ in the mind's interpretation. Depending on that interpretation, any sense can be profoundly effected and distorted. Every trip is different.

All the best,

Now I know why electronic music drenched in artificial digital reverb is so popular around these parts.
