Something For The Fuse Guys ...

There are fuses, and then, there are fuses. 

I'm evaluating some prototype fuses that I received in the mail three days ago. 

Over the past few years, I've used fuses from five different manufacturers. The last three were the Red, Black and Blue fuses from Synergistic Research. Each one incrementally improved the sound of my system. My favorite so far was the SR Blue. 

The prototype fuses being evaluated presently raises the SQ beyond all of the others mentioned above. The major improvement to my ears is better tonal accuracy. Instruments and voices are more life-like. The noise is reduced allowing for a more solid 3-D presentation with the musicians more solidly presented on the sound stage. Overall, more information is fleshed out of CDs and LPs. 

The manufacturer, the price and the name of the prototype fuses will come later. I don't have the information thus far. My understanding is, if all works out, the release date is to be mid-October. 

Stay tuned ...

geoffkait …"I also have much testing on a professional level in my experience on complex mission critical systems for both NASA and FAA."

How many years in total did you work for NASA and FAA?

More than I care to remember, jitter. I also have considerable testing experience for other government agencies. 🤫

When you see a large block of platinum it’s mostly just empty space. 🤡

I’m still waiting for someone to, "prove" fancy fuses can’t/won’t/don’t improve one’s listening experience.    OH, WAIT: you can’t.    All I’ve seen/read here, thus far, are theories and subjectivity.    Nothing’s ever been categorically proven by either.    Theories are proven through experimentation & measurement(the Scientific Method).    Again: you have to know what and how to measure, but- there are nothing but theories, in that regard, thus far(IF you’re honest/not brainwashed).    Double-blind listening tests, depend solely on the listeners’ aural acuity(highly subjective).    The ONLY way an audiophile will ever know, if fancy fuses will improve THEIR listening experience, is to experiment/listen on their own, with their own system and ears.

Will someone here start and moderate a FB page, where rules of decorum are enforced?
Audiophile Facebook pages already exist.
