Synergistic Red Fuse ...

I installed a SR RED Quantum fuse in my ARC REF-3 preamp a few days ago, replacing an older high end fuse. Uhh ... for a hundred bucks, this little baby is well worth the cost. There was an immediate improvement upon installation, but now that its broken in (yes, no kidding), its quite remarkable. A tightening of the focus, a more solid image, and most important of all for my tastes, a deeper appreciation for the organic sound of the instruments. Damn! ... cellos sound great! Much improved attack on pianos. More humanistic on vocals. Bowed bass goes down forever. Next move? .... I'm doing the entire system with these fuses. One at a time though just to gauge the improvement in each piece of equipment. The REF-75se comes next. I'll report the results as the progression takes place. Stay tuned ...

Any comments from anyone else who has tried these fuses?

"....... The Furutechs beat the HiFi Tuning by a lot, the SR 20's beat the Furutechs by a little.  Now, I have the SR Reds installed, and they are far and away so superior to the SR 20's.."   .  And there is a new SR Black that is probably light years better then Red.   The guy just lost his mind... out of proportion.
It all depends on a system and even more on the preferences of it's owner.  Cables,  fuses and everything else.. 
hah ... far and away superior...   yea...

"....BLACK featuring a patent pending UEF coating and Graphene with 8 million times the conductive density of copper... "  Let's make it 5 billion times... 
I've read reports ,  SR20 is manufactured by a german SIBA.  Apparently, when you peel off the fuse a sticker, you can see SIBA logo and even the fuse catalog no.  And the original fuse, SIBA cost 50 cent or so.  Of course, the tunneling process is an added value and makes SR20 a good sounding fuse.
