PROTOTYPE FUSES - NEW THREAD


The prototype fuses are breaking in very nicely. Last night's listening session was something very special indeed.

The projected release date is mid-October.

Stay tuned for more information.

Some members are not worth debating with. 
Ignoring does wonders for sanity.

I went from SR Black to Orange in my amp and Dac.

My thoughts at the time:
"Base stronger - seems to hang in the air.
Instrument separation more discernible.
Again, hearing things in tracks I'd never heard before.
Overall, a huge A+ in my view"

If Oregonpaps is right, I may have to upgrade.


@jerrybj,
I hear you.
I wasn't really trying to debate, more trying to figure out what the point of the posts were.
Now I know.

I am paying pretty close attention to @oregonpapa 's posts, as I, too am curious as to what's going to drop.

I am here simply because I am interested in another audiophile's opinion on them, and am curious to see what he has to say about them.

So far, unless the prototype fuses are WAY outside of my price range (enough to move up from the Orange SR's), I may have to upgrade, too. After all, I suspect they will come with a money back guarantee. 

Guess we'll see.

Lay intuition. None of the great things humans have done were done by mystics. They were done by educated people using science the correct way.
Right. You reserve the practice of "lay intuition" exclusively for yourself. To your credit, you’re consistent in assessing the sound of equipment by solely looking at pictures and reading white papers.
Until the fuse blows it does not change or modify anything, nothing, nada, zilch, zero.
I’d ask you to share your data but - as you’ve demonstrated before - your "proof" always goes "poof." It’s really fine that you put faith in your intuition, but it’s a bit disingenuous of you to deny others the same.
I did mean to say SUBJECTIVE listening impressions are not scientific in that they can can be influenced by placebo effect. Maybe it’s more accurate to say they are not CONCLUSIVE proof of anything.

Observation IS conclusive proof. We know the sun shines because we see it. We did not doubt that the sun was shining for millennia until we managed to measure its energy, we knew it shone all the way back from our Stone Age days.

When multiple unrelated people make the same observation it is considered conclusive truth and on that alone a number of people have been sent to the electric chair.

So far no one has been able to describe to me exactly how a fuse affects the audio signal. The audio signal does not pass through the fuse


Really? So you’re the world’s smartest genius that would understand why everything would work? Really? You don’t know how a microprocessor works - yet your iPad works just fine right? You have no problems using that no?

It’s 40 bucks to test. You don’t have to understand how it works to get benefit.
" Double yawn. Lay intuition. None of the great things humans have done were done by mystics. They were done by educated people using science the correct way."

Triple yawn back at you. 

Educated people use scientific method. Something you clearly never heard of.

Scientific Method - Observe; develop hypothesis to explain observation; test hypotheses; end up with theory if hypothesis test true..

Your method - Don't bother to observe for yourself; when too ignorant and under educated to develop a hypothesis, claim observations as false; pat yourself on the back for being such a smart "scientist"; delude yourself that nothing in the universe is true unless you understand it; flaunt your ignorance of science on a forum. 

Did I miss anything?
