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.

@oregonpapa don't understand "I’ll know more when my third regular audiophile friend comes up next Sunday". You mean you need another person to tell you what to hear? If you don't know then this is all a joke! And if this is how you listen to music how do you enjoy music? Just relax and forget about these small nuances do they really matter?

Not just a joke, but a very well organised con on the gullible.

He doesn’t, it’s all about the kick backs in whatever form they come in.


Yet he did say,

It killed the SR Orange fuse in every respect. There was a BIG improvement in overall clarity from top to bottom. And the midrange ... the midrange ... Zowie!
And he still needs Mr Golden Ears to tell him!! Common even the gullible weren’t born yesterday, hopefully.

I have a collection of investment quality Reds, Blacks, and Blues I would sell you at a good price if you’re interested.
Really now your going to sell something you got for     .

I think I described what I have heard pretty well in my above posts. So, you have my input, and that of others as well. Not too much to understand, is there?

Oh, crapola, you got me on those "kickbacks." You wouldn't believe the amount of money I have pouring into my bank account at this point. Hey man, I'm getting plane fare for a trip to Tahiti today. Think of it George ... dancing girls, Mai Tais galore, white sandy beaches, and azure blue waters ... all while contemplating the joy of reporting yet another one of your insulting, personal attacking posts to the Mods. 

In the meantime, the system is better than ever.

Please describe the test protocol in detail.

Everything described is explainable from first principles, i.e. HiFi sound, as is all sound, is a constantly changing parameter due to component temperature [voice coil deltas affect crossover points, amp temperatures affect bias], room temperature & pressure affect transmission, etc. It is well nigh impossible to absolutely replicate a listening environment.

Not sure what power provider you have, but our line voltage in Florence has been a bit flaky for the past week or so, moving from 121 to 124 whereas normally a rock steady 123.

@bdp24 : call me when you break out the Islay single malts [always on offer here]. Glenlivet 18 will do. IMO, Blue is a joke.
ieales ...

"Not sure what power provider you have ..."


The provider is Southern California Edison. The AC power here is extremely dirty and affects sound quality in a very significant negative way. This is why I and many other A’gon members have concentrated on cleaning up that power as it enters our listening environments. This is what the Perfect Path Technologies products were all about. Until you have used these products, you have no idea of what your system is capable of. When using these products, the system becomes a much more reliable source for testing other products such as was done with the fuses that are the topic of this thread.

And by the way jeales, I was the person who introduced PPT products to this venue ... and I took a lot of heat from many of the same actors that always try to demean others on this forum. Do some research on past threads that deal with PPT products. It is interesting reading.

The final proof is in the listening, jeales, and if you’re ever in the neighborhood, you are welcome to come over for a listening session. The low distortion and quiet background that the music and performers emanate from is really quite something, mainly due to cleaning up the AC power. The price of admission is one bottle of Glenfarclas Single Malt, my favorite. :-)

Measuring devices?? Ears.
