Aftermarket fuse to tame a bright system?

@rhg3 - I recently did a lot of experimentation with miniDSP (SHD). It is a good DAC, but not great. Adding it in analog chain may not be a good idea since EQ is digital so the path will involve AD conversion and back. Now, I also tried adding SHD in pure digital path, between my PC and Terminator DAC (trying Dirac and PEQ). Well... I cannot say SHD was transparent. Some quality was lost with PEQ on. 

As for silver interconnects, I like. Have DH Labs something. Cant let go 2 yrs now.

Add tubes!

A couple beers will solve your problem more than will any fuse or cables.

I took possession yesterday of a pair of Audio Magic Masterpiece M2’s to grace the Audion Mk3 monoblocs. These fuses have been just the ticket for the last bit of settling down of the Cornwall 4’s. They get a soft grip on the treble and high mids without lessening detail at all. Even though they are nowhere near break-in yet it is already quite obvious that they are a perfect match for my set-up. First thing noticed was that diction of the sung word was quite a bit more intelligible. This may be because instrument separation is handled better which then de-clutters the music. The music is also less in your face but with no diminution of musical information - more relaxed, more natural sounding. This is as close a sound to my tube set-up as I have ever gotten with a SS system.

I am just starting out - more later.
