We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses

I know you don't, but my favorite is still when you called kosst_amojan "costco emojicon".  Pretty good stuff. 

That’s one of my favs too. See, we agree sometimes. 🤠

geoffkait  = fiction

gdhal, not too be too harsh about this as I value your input (cough, cough) but you appear to be an excellent example of why some people should not (rpt not) ingest psychedelics. 🤡 I am the King of Fiction and the King of Truth.

Just an observation. It seems HAL is stuck in a DO loop. Maybe time to call Maintenance. 

Doug, if you want request the mods remove my post above please feel free to, I would myself if I could through the edit function. Sorry man, there are a lot of people who are in the market, and to somehow compare something trivial like the use of fuses to the potential decline in people’s 401K, IRAs and savings just didn’t seemed right. But again, I wish I hadn’t written anything.

geoffkait - I am the King of Fiction and the King of Truth.

You are king of having to have the last word.

No, I’m not. You are.

jetter, apology accepted.

Can we have more contribution from persons who have/are trying aftermarket fuses? Or, additional contribution from those who are trying them ongoing? 

Doug, when are you going to weigh in on this weighty subject? You promised you would. 😀 so far all I see is a lot of moderation and facilitation. 

I had not disdained fuses; I've had too many experiences where products in the signal or power path have proven to have an effect, if not entirely efficacious, i.e. worth the money. I simply have too much going to think about them. 

I finally found the motivation to try. My answers: Fuses are, all told, a gift to the audiophile community, and I plan on trying some more of them. I doubt that my conclusion will change due to continued usage, but if so I can revise my conclusion. 

Such a strange answer. Details! Details! Why so reticent? Oh I know. You’re afraid of the blowback. 🤡

geoffkait, how about we just don't talk to each other? No anger, but I just don't care for you. You present yourself as trying to be so helpful, then nitpick and irritate. So, please leave me alone. Thank you.  :) 

No problem, douglas_schroeder, you may continue with your troll in peace. 😬 You represent yourself as kind of a wannabe.

@douglas_schroeder 

My sentiments too! I'd venture to say nearly everyone else on the forum as well!

Apparently, the The new Synergistic Research BLUE fuses .... discussion has been closed by the moderator. Too acrimonious and slanderous for me anyway. The assertions by others who know better than me is that 75,000 after market audiophile fuses have been sold. That's a lot fuses.  My friends and I have all obtained their fuses in the past two years which may mean that sale of fuses is accelerating.  

The Blue Fuse thread is still open. There have been a few, ahem, deletions recently, I’m not saying that. 😀

This is the last postings on that forum.  Notice the bottom statement from the moderator.  Maybe I'm wrong but it appears correct.

^Remember gk, by your own admission, 80 percent or more of your posts are fictitious.

Prove it. You can’t. That’s because you’re lying. Remember, you’re the flea. I’m the elephant. My guess is you attended one too many Dead concerts. One too many trips to the mind garden. 🌹 🌹 🌷 🥀 🌺

This discussion is closed 

Thread the Blue thread is alive and well (like the Blues in my power amps)
https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/the-new-synergistic-research-blue-fuses

The thread is alive but the discussion is closed.  Check for yourself and see if you can post.  I can't, it states discussion is closed.

That’s the way it goes sometimes. Someone should start a new one but don’t tell you know who where it is. 😀

That’s 2 "snake oil" fuse threads shut down, hope the others do too if they start with all the outrageous claims of of sound improvements for their systems being suddenly transformed.

But like I said they’re like weeds, pull one out and another one pops up. It’’s the mantra of the fusing shiller. And judging by Geoff’s post the weed seed has been sewn.

Cheers George

Whoa! What? Is there a full moon or something?

It doesn't take a careful reading of George's last posting to see that it's his mission statement to be as big a troll as he can. Thanks, George, for finally telling the truth. 

If you don't feed the trolls, this thread can survive. 

All the best,
Nonoise

Perhaps it's just the less constructive posters who are being blocked -- seems as if Geoff and I can post freely to the original Blue thread 😌

Geoff, constructive? Thanks. I needed a good laugh. 

Wolf, George and gdhal-Not funny and just troublemakers.  Ruins the forums they inhabit.

gdhal, this is your brain 🧠 This is your brain on drugs 🍳

Just say No.

Geoff enough, it’s about time you stopped insinuating the gdhal is on drugs, otherwise your posts will be reported.

Cheers George (potential forum cop)

Actually, gdhal already admitted to this:

geoffkait - Gdhal, would it be safe to say you’re experiencing another one of your Deadhead acid flashbacks? Or are you always like this? 😬 Question. Have you given any consideration to going back and finishing up your GED? 😀

Possible. Admittedly, I suspect my mind isn't always as "normal" as it would have been had I not "experimented"

Oddly, this same person is quick to accuse others of being delusional. But I agree that it's really not appropriate to chastise someone who has a brain injury or defect, even if it was self-inflicted.

Cheers George (potential forum cop)

Does that come with a plastic badge? 

And your on the hit list also sunshine.

Cheers George

Can we return to productive conversation? 

Now, where is our volunteer among the skeptics who will try an aftermarket fuse? It's not like I'm asking you to put up $1,000 for a cable. I'm guessing someone is willing to take a $50 risk to see if fuses make a distinct difference. 

georgehifi"And your on the hit list also sunshine.Cheers George"

You Americans with you’re guns and swagger and threats to others and you wonder why the rest of the world laughs at you! If I lived in the U.S. I would never post on this group why would I when one of your members threatens a "hit" over an audio post! You probably let nutjobs like this have a whole garage full of guns and bombs no wonder your USA is blowing itself up! But hey he’s a savior he won’t let people buy fancy fuses so he’s justified with this garbage. At least gdhal has a drug problem to blame for his crap this guy is just crazy so it’s ok why don’t you let him buy some more guns its his right after all! Freedom freedom freedom go go go USA!

Oh “clearthink” lol

chrshanl37Oh “clearthink” lol

Oh yes its so funny when Americans with guns and bombs threaten others you are the world's tough guys for real then explain why the rest of the world laughs at you're country! What a mess but you guys love it guns guns guns go go go USA!

And your on the hit list also sunshine.

A troll that threatens, and runs to the mods to get posts deleted. 
I'm quivering in my boots.

Moderators, feel free to clean up and close the thread; I've gotten what I wanted out of it. I suspect if it is allowed to continue the rancor that was found on the other thread will increase here. I would rather this be closed than to lose the good exchanges on the thoughts behind trying or not trying fuses.   :) 

Go to China and Russia and see how much freedom they have and how they bully their own people as well as people all around the world (well, mostly Russia does that, China buys out foreign country interests). Trump may threaten but Russia acts surreptitiously to install itself wherever it wants to. It’s in Lebanon and Syria as well as Crimea and parts of Ukraine. Eastern Europe is afraid of Russia, not of the U.S.

As I've previously stated here and in the prior thread, audiophile fuses are a gift.

Oh “clearthink”...im not sure george is from the US....

Just shaking my head in utter disbelief.  <sheesh!>

Frank

Oh dear! I can’t believe clearthink can think this way, read again "SLOWLY" it was reference to deleting posts as a potential forum cop.

And yes I’m from Australia, gods country, where we have gun controls so tight you can’t even own a BB gun here.

Cheers George

clearthink,

America has enough problems without being blamed for the likes of georgehifi. Please get your facts straight before launching your next inappropriate assault on the US.

Just so any interested party should know, any reference to me and drugs goes way back many years. Nothing current, except beer. I’d venture to say the majority of the world does or has tried some kind of drug, especially if one considers doctor prescribed drugs. Some of the greatest musicians have experimented too. Including the Beatles, which the vinyl lovers among the group typically revere. If you haven’t tried it, you ought to. It opens one mind to creativity and possibilities, not the impossible.
