Are there differences between the slo-blow and the fast-blow? Otherwise it would make sense to always order the slow-flow? I don't know what my amplifier needs (Primare I35).
The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses
This thread is intended for those who are actually using the new SR Purple Fuses. In my system, they are a significant improvement over the SR Orange fuses. What are your impressions?

@ajessner Hi, Fast Blow (F) Fuses are usually used for Power Amps and Slow Blow (T) are used for just about everything else. Take your fuse out and have a look, it's located just below the power cable inlet. It'll be 20mm long but there are 38mm long fuses too. If buying a SR Purple fuse go up one level, so an 8A will become 10A. |
Hi Ozzy, I agree--the Purples are much better than Orange. I put four Purples in my Maggie 3.6R's, and the improvements are stunning. I have used SR Red, Black, Blue, Orange and now, Purple in my Maggies and AC mains of ARC amps and CD Player and subs--nine places in total. I have always oriented fuses the same way via the writing on the fuse. A thing I have, though, is that I always put fuses in once, and I can always hear the improvements, so I do not switch them around. I do not want to lose the magic, so I say, "This has to be right." Some say the wrong way is very noticeably wrong. I always hear 'noticeably great', so I leave them as is. Am I just lucky, or is there a degree of improvement with wrong orientation and a much higher degree with the right orientation? |
