You sound like a really smart guy. Question: Considering that Synergistic Research offers a 30 day, money back guarantee on their Blue fuses, wouldn't it be prudent for you to order a fuse/fuses for your amp and/or other pieces of gear to evaluate them for yourself?  There's really nothing to lose other than the shipping costs which are minimal.  I think that makes a lot more sense as opposed to becoming frustrated to the point of denigrating other members here. You may even find out, God forbid, that you are wrong.

Thanks. That was hilarious. :-)

An accurate portrayal on how we used to do it before the advent of social media.

Ha, a glutton for punishment, I see. 

All is absolutely great, Georgie, and thanks so much for asking. I've received my massive amounts of commission checks and I just booked a round-trip flight to Tahiti. Upon return, I'll be staying for a month in my lakeside chateau just resting up from the Tahiti trip. From there, its a three-month luxury tour of Europe. I can hardly wait to see the land of my ancestors. My investment broker will be overseeing my money market account while I'm gone. Its just amazing how quickly cash builds up when you work on a 100% commission basis ... and you're really good at it. 

I post positive things about the things that are positive. SR fuses are very positive things. That's it .... Nite.,

It's very curious that some are in denial without ever trying the fuses for themselves. For those who have, and have found no benefit, I'm beginning to think they are listening for the wrong things, or at least different things than those who clearly hear the difference.

I recognize some of the problems in searching the music forum here on A'gon and checking out some of the recordings being lauded as "great." I have the same problem with some of the magazine reviewers. I check out the recordings they used to evaluate equipment. How they can give a true evaluation listening to recordings that are compressed, or drenched in artificial digital reverb is beyond me.

  • "Frank my friend, Reverb isn’t bad. Currently enjoying it via Bryan Ferry. My premium fuses seem to be enjoying it as well" :-)


I didn’t mean to suggest that that adding artificial reverb (in small doses) isn’t enjoyable, I’m saying that it’s not accurate. It makes it appear that the soundstage is wider/deeper .. but it’s not like real life. Natural reverb and artificial reverb are two different animals. :-)
