@oregonpapa Frank, I need to challenge the methodology of your ’comparison’ as I understand it (post your clarification).
I believe it is especially important since you have self identified yourself as a beta tester and have shared your findings across 3 threads (if memory serves me).
Please know I am not disputing your findings (yet)...they may well hold...but I am now questioning them.
Please know this is coming from someone who is far more invested in SR than I believe you are.
I’m also familiar with SR’s improvements (and track record with new introductions) as one moves from a previous generation product to a new one.
If I am incorrect in what follows, please offer your corrections.
1. Audio Memory is fickle and tricky. This holds even when the comparisons are close in time. Removing 4 fuses in 4 different components takes time. Installing 4 fuses takes time. Having the components settle after being off and out of system takes time. Break-in time for the fuses, though shorter now, does add another time element. Were your fuses stock out of the box or were they specially broken in for you?
2. To A/B a single change isn’t easy. 4 changes simultaneously is quite a feat.
3. I’m assuming you did not A/B/A and repeat (?)
4. Directionality? Was it checked? By specific component?
5. Was there a reason why you did not compare the fuses one fuse/component at a time? In other words only one new orange fuse in the system with 3 blue fuses. Times 4.
6. Was there a reason you did not take a stepped approach. One component, then two? For example, starting with the most upstream or most downstream component.
7. Was there overlap with your Stop It applications? From your posts, it appears so. If that is the case, how are you separating out contributions from one or the other and both?
Thanks.
