Blue Fuse for Primare Pre32


I have a Primare Pre32 preamp and wouId like to replace its fuse with a Synergistic Research Blue Fuse. The fuse currently in use is a T2AL250V. Question: Do I replace the original fuse with the SR Blue Fuse size 5mm x 20mm Slo-Blow 250mA 2A? If not then which one? Please advise and thank you.

They also state that the fuse is directional. So try it both ways. I know it sounds strange but just before I put the original back in I reversed mine and it sounded like the stock fuse. I will wait a while before upgrading to the blue as I just upgraded one of my power cords and looking to also upgrade my speaker cables.

Which brings up an interesting point. Much of the improvement of aftermarket fuses can be attributed directly to their directionality, which is due to the directionality of the wire itself. All fuses are directional, whether they're stated to be or not. So, if you reverse your stock fuse you just might find the sound gets better. What are the odds?

Good luck
Mine is on order and should be here by weeks end. Looking forward to it and thanks for sharing your experience..
Took a good 75 hrs to break in for starters. What impressed me the most was a slightly better control of the music overall. Kind of like moving up to the next level of power cord without the huge expense. To verify what I heard I put the stock fuse back in after a good 200 hrs and I lost the 'control'.

That said it wasn't earth shattering but a nice improvement for $129.
That's a 2 amp slow blow fuse rated at 250V. 250mA would be too small a rating. You should get the exact rated and sized fuse that you currently have. Not go bigger or smaller as rated and never go fast blow in place of slow blow or visa versa.

As a side note I just recently replaced my standard fuse with a SR Black and was very impressed for the money spent. The Blue came out about a month after getting it.
