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.

Should you upgrade the fuse in a power conditioner?  I have an AQ Niagra 1200.  I would think the fuse that comes with a conditioner would be high quality.  No?

It has been so long I can no longer remember who it was but back in grade school there was this kid who got so petulant at losing he took all his toys and went home. This always puzzled me. Why did he think anyone wanted to play with him in the first place?

I majored in business with a minor in risk management and insurance. Erisch is of course correct.

Doesn’t matter. The fact of the matter is the very best anyone can do today is still laughably far from replicating reality. When we gush about how something is so much better, more real and lifelike and whatnot, this all stems from a love of music. Only when we really love something, deep and strong, does anyone care when it is made a little bit better. For those of us who care any improvement however small is important and worth the effort.

Of course we know not everyone does care. Plenty of people studiously maintain an air of impartial aloofness making a show of not caring while at the same time calling themselves audiophiles. It is sad, and we do feel sorry for you. But it would help a lot if since you really don’t care you would be consistent and not care enough to be rubbing your not care in our faces all the time. Go not care somewhere else. Leave the listening to those of us who do.
