Fuses that matter.

I have tried six different fuses, including some that were claimed to not be directional. I have long used the IsoClean fuses as the best I have heard. No longer! I just got two 10 amp slow-blows WiFi Tuning Supreme fuses that really cost too much but do make a major difference in my sound. I still don't understand how a fuse or its direction can alter sound reproduction for the better, but they do and the Supreme is indeed! I hear more detail in the recordings giving me a more holographic image. I also hear more of the top and bottom ends. If only you could buy them for a couple of bucks each.

>>Avatar is the AMR North American distributor that I contacted. Still no reply.

Ditto, after sending a couple of reminder emails and voice mails I gave up and ordered Liquid Nanos, hopefully bettering my HiFi Supremes.

Update

AMR: I called again to Avatar and had a nice chat with Darren. Turned out they were very (or too) busy prepping for the CES last couple of weeks and Debbie had an mid-ear infection. So finally the fuses are ordered and on their way. Lacee, you may want to give them another or final try (or wait till CES is over).

Liquid Nano (got the recent generation of grey liquid, supposed to be better sounding according to Jerry): much better, IME, than the HiFi Gold and IsoClean, not sure they will replace the HiFi Supreme for now; indeed a tad bloomy.

May order some Synergistic to close off this round of comparison for myself.

Indeed the investment in a Benjamin Franklin worth of a single fuse can equate the improvement of a much more expensive tweak like a better power cord; provided that fuse does not blow too often. I have now several brands in my system and use the AMR for the rail fuses (whenever possible as AMR has still limited offering in fast blow fuse values) and a mix of Liquid Nano and Supremes for the power fuses.
