PROTOTYPE FUSES - NEW THREAD

Frank, I had a look at the prior thread but I couldn’t see if the company will be offering a range of fuses or only a single “color”. Also will they be offering both fast and slo blow?

Thanks

Hey Pauly,

I believe that both fast and slo-blow will be offered.

We had a wonderful five-hour listening session today. The system sounded fantastic.

My friend has a terrific record collection and a multitude of high-quality recordings, specifically high-quality reissues.

The gem of the day was his copy of Miles’ "Kind of Blue" reissued by Analogue Productions. It’s the "UHQR" reissue that is pressed on clear vinyl. This is the closest to having real instruments playing in the room as I’ve ever heard. I have the original six-eye stereo, and several reissues, including a Japanese reissue of this recording. I’ve always found the original to sound the best, until today. If you want the best version of Kind of Blue, seek out the Analogue Productions reissue. It is amazing.

Now then, back to the fuses ... My friend heard what I’ve been reporting about the prototype fuses, in that they allow for a major increase in realism because the music is presented in a more relaxed manner akin to live music. It’s as though someone not only cleaned the glass window through which we listen, but removed the window altogether.

We discussed how the prototype fuses stack up against the QSA Yellow fuses. Here it is in a nutshell: The prototype fuses kill the SR Orange fuses. My friend had the QSA Yellow fuses in his system and went back to his SR Orange fuses because he felt they are more involving from a musical standpoint. I concur. The prototype fuse is the better fuse of the three, hands down.

The prototype fuses are totally involving. While listening to the Kind of Blue album, I pointed out to my friend that we were both doing the old toe-tapping thing. He made the comment that he didn’t even realize he was doing it until I pointed it out. He was just totally immersed in the music. Me too. What a great album. What great fuses.

Hi Frank: You give an excellent and useful description of the three fuses. Thank you for the enthusiasm for music that you provide us. I have the orange fuses in my preamp and amps. I just auditioned a QSA yellow fuse in my preamp and I agree with your assessment. The orange is more musically engaging. The yellow is more detailed, but that's not what really what I'm after in my system. Jeff

What happened to the 1st thread ?

Happy Listening!
