| Grover Huffman GH RCA ZX+ cables vs... I am Grover’s cable tester. I have several high end systems. I have been through nearly 100 versions of cable, mostly unmarketed. I disliked his 2004 Empress Cable made with a partner. I disliked most of his early trials during the 2000-2010 perio... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Robert and I use this CD which he introduced me to, for testing equipment and changes in our audio system. If it doesn't sound great, there is something wrong with the system. I found out that my mid range drivers on my Focus speakers were lack... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Has anyone on this forum broke open an SR black fuse and analyzed what it is made of and constructed? Who knows, maybe it does not have a hair thin wire but a thick wire made of some other substance. Maybe it has anti-vibrational content differ... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... A retail dealer informed me that VAC audio only uses high quality ceramic fuses and does not recommend ordinary glass Bussman or Littlefuses. Sure it's not black SR fuses, but VAC wants to make a profit and finds better quality, lower cost cerami... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I just read the recent posts and Morini on Brahms is a favorite. Other favorites of mine are Szyerng on Mercury, Kogan on EMI and Milstein on Capitol. I probably have a 18 performances but those four stand out in front of the Heifetz. However,... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Yes Jetter, those are the old stock Mullard EL34s. I haven't tried any new stock EL34s as of yet but may for another Dynaco I'm waiting for Grover to modify. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Well, I installed a slo-blo 4 amp fuse on SR advice as a 3 amp may blow too easily. It removed an upper end brightness as well as tightened the imaging bass and brought out more detail, more music. Then I plugged the whole system into a black SR d... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Thank you Frank for the effusive compliments on my audio systems. The Altec amps only have the casework and transformers remaining. At SR, the tech suggested 8 amp fuses after the amp rated 5 amp fuses blew. This was after I informed him the th... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I recently replaced my stock power cord for my Bryston RM 20 power conditioner with a custom made Grover Huffman 20 amp a/c cable. It is more open sounding and clear. Music is sounding faster with more detail and less glare. Now I inserted my syst... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I want the moderator of Audiogon to get rid of Wolf-Garcia and Georgelofi from this blog. As he or she can clearly read, they add nothing to the discussion, only disgust. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... George Jetter,I have a dedicated music room 25’ X 23’ X 12.6’ high with too many records on the floor but mostly in custom wall shelving. Also about 5,000 of the 7,000 CDs are in metal drawer cases. The records and CDs which are put away on walls ... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I improved my system by about 20% of what the fuses have done by replacing the 6SN7 cathode follower tubes in my amps today. I had 1950s GE tubes which Andy of Vintage Tube Services stated they are mediocre at best. He told me to stick with RCA an... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... GK, I also have a quasi-high end analog set-up, a VPI TNT VI mod./SME IV mod./Benz Ruby 3, isolation platform/Audio Interface SUT and $15K custom phono stage. About $30K+ and properly aligned. I just counted 79 RFR and FR pressings. I have hear... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Low bass performance on the Mercury CDs are not lacking at all in any of the 3 pressings. They sound veryI focused, dynamic and tonally correct. I also have about 50 RFR and FR Lps and most of the Golden Presence(?) reissues. The early LPs vary in... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Audio equipment which can measure the same (such as amps), can sound vastly different (unless one is Julian Hirsch). Tubes and wire can measure the same and again sound totally different. LPs which are pressed consecutively using the same stampe... |
