Ayon cd5-s or Skylla -2 dac. Big improvement


There is 11 steel fuses in the Skylla dac and 12 in the cd5 player
First Synergistic research Big MIGs under the unit are a noticeable upgrade
A good quality aftermarket power cord, plug all open RCA, and xlr openings with the Cardas caps, to block rf noise from entering,
And the biggest by far is replace all the fuses with Hifi tuning Supreme
20mm T fuses yes it is a $500 bill but a small price to pay for
These Silvergold fuses have 8x less resistance vs steel just check the Silver resistance, the level of low level detail , resolution, and stereo separation is Very apparent as well as dynamics being a bit quicker.
If you have invested this much in these units already this is ano brainer
This is possibly better then a cable upgrade and all that steel in
Common fuses is a Huge bottleneck and all that low level hash
Is Gone,clarity you didnot realize was there before. P.s

I can only tell ou what I hear, I have used the hifi tuning supreme fuses throughout and in every instance it was an improvement.
I also want to mention I use the Furutech Nano fluid which is a gold Silver
Blend and this coats all the micro pits in the metal and coats the steel
Fuse holders, alo these fuses take a minimum f 50 hours for these
Fuses to settle own and refine 70 hours even better and iris essential
Todo all12 fuses for using for example 3 fuses you are only getting
Partial benefit and still. Leaving 75 percent with all that grunge and hash
We have tested the resistance as well as on a scope steel vs these silver gold models , night and day better conductivity , an many imes less resistance. Everyone that has come over on a regular basis agreed there is more low level musical information and noticably better separation
And clarity. I also wanted to mention vintage rectifier tubes make a nice
Improvement over the Chinese models that loose their composer when th music gets complex even after 1,000 hrs ,the French D getter Mazdas,
And Amperex a a bid improvement some 5 x the money though
And Herbies Titanium Teflon tube dampers clear things up a bit .
Everything counts. I totally stand behind my statement.
If you follow my guidelines Ican't guarantee you will hear the
Improvements in your system. My Electrostatic loudspeakers easilly
Pick up the. Sonic improvements in detail. Try it before knocking it.
Melbguy if sonic tone is a thinness then Furutech solid copper fuses
Are a win win situation many times less resistance and sound of Copper
Which is always warmer anyway ,a choice is allways good .I may
Try mixing and matching in several crucial areas such as several fuses 3.125A
Ihappened to have a bunch of fuses left from a lot I bought.
In this hobby their is nothing set in stone !
6c4p is correct Ayon U.S as well as Europe refuses to admit it is a typo
6z4 mini is Chinese and not as good as he Reflector tube which is correct
Very reasonably priced and good for a solid 2-3 years also Ayon U.S
Wants $105 each ? WHat are they thinking ?
These are not 1979-80 6h30 tubes which are now at least this much ,for
Rectifiers $10 dollars U.S is tops be a smart shopper !!
