Quantum Science Audio Thread

Couldn’t agree with you more George - causes significant dynamic compression on virtually alll power amps. Why it works with the Robertson is beyond my comprehension.

@kingbarbuda,

It is not.

I just received my red QSA fuse today. I also applied the 1260 to the end caps.
First listen, definitely a sharper image than the yellow.

• "First listen, definitely a sharper image than the yellow."

That was my first impression when I replaced the SR Orange fuses with the QSA Yellow fuses. There definitely was more detail because of a perceived improvement in transparency. However, eventually, I went back to the SR Orange fuses in order to enjoy the music.

I’m looking forward to your assessment of the red fuse as it breaks in, Ozzy. There are a couple of A’goners getting ready to receive the QSA Violet fuses, and I’m looking forward to their assessments as well.

I’m very curious at this point how far up the QSA fuse line one would have to go in order to outperform the prototype fuses (price to be determined) I’m using now. The QSA Yellows certainly don’t do it at $213. Maybe the QSA Violet fuse at $711 might be the ticket. Or ... maybe the QSA Red fuse at $1422 will do the trick. We’ll see down the road.

At any rate, the improvements made by these aftermarket fuses boggles the mind, as do the prices. :-)

@kingbarbudaIs this the 1260 paste that was being referred to earlier as an alternative to Total Contact and preferred over Total Contact by (at least) one person here?

No, I used 1260 contact enhancer.  It is $350 for a 1.5 ml bottle.  I don't think it is as good as PPT but I am out of PPT.  Try the Cable Company...they have it.
