NEW PROTOTYPE FUSES COMING >>>

I’ve been asked to evaluate/beta test some new fuses that will be coming out soon. I should have them as soon as this coming Saturday.

At this point:

1. I cannot reveal the name of the manufacturer of the fuses.
2. I do not know what the retail price will be.
3. I do not know what the name of the fuse will be.

For comparison purposes, I have a full complement of SR Orange fuses that can be used throughout the system. I have one QSA Yellow fuse now being used in my ARC-PH8 phono stage, with another one to arrive soon to be used in my ARC REF-75se.

I’ll be comparing the SR Orange fuses, and the QSA fuses, with the new prototype fuses. I’ll also be using the ears of three of my well-seasoned audiophile friends, as well as my own to make the evaluations. These guys are all truth-tellers that I have full confidence in.

According to the manufacturer, these new fuses are real game-changers, so stay tuned.

“You’ve been ask and ask and ask to stop costing people money and calling anyone that disagrees with you, names. You WON’T stop after being ask by several people to STOP the harassment on SEVERAL threads.”


You cannot expect mature behavior from the immature. Hopefully Tammy will do us a solid and ban him off Audiogon for good.

Nobody will miss him, that’s for sure.

Not too late if he is banned !This guy reads every post of every fuse threads for years now insulting people that don’t think like him, and repeating the same thing again and again.

Imagine the time he consumes for that, it’s crazy.  

I am bored to have mail alerts for a new message in a thread that is interesting me and when I open the link this is a bad message from him and often already deleted.
This from the very same guy and lasting for years. I’m happy he is banned from the Audiogon, and for sure I am not the only one.

@oldhvymec,

It’s quite unfortunate that it has come down to this! Sadly @admin has allowed georgehifi sadistic behavior to continue on several threads. He doesn’t know when to QUIT…you can’t carry a civil discussion with someone who always try to one-up you.

Thanks to Tammy for reopening this thread. :-)

Now that the new SR Purple fuses are shipping, we can get input from those members who have taken the plunge and want to report their results here. 

My fuses have completely broken in at this point, and things are sounding mighty fine.

I’ve got one that will hopefully be shipping out this week to try with my Van Alstine amp. Yellow QSA is in there now, it is good, but doesn’t get as transparent as the Violet one. 

I’m very interested to begin testing out SR Purple on a few different components over the coming weeks.

@cdc...you are lucky that you components require the same fuse.  My components are all wildly different.  I have QSA yellow in every component which is better than SR orange imo.  I look forward to your honest appraisal.

Which Van Alstine amp do you have? Years ago, I had Frank put his circuits inside of a mint Dyna Stereo 120 that I bought at a garage sale for four-bucks. Whatever VA did with that amp turned it into a little killer. Talk about bass control! 

Please post your impressions on the new SR Purple fuse when it breaks in. Thanks ...

I've got the SET 120 Control amp - have mixed feelings about it - nice air and separation, but not as fun as some of my other gear.

I do want to get his new M225 mono blocks soon.

Fuse came today, will try and post some impressions in a week or two.
