Synergistic Research Fuses vs cheaper ceramic fuses


I saw this guy from YouTube say he found a huge improvement using cheap ceramic fuses from Amazon.  I wonder if there's really any difference in these and SR Orange or Blue.  

Anyone tried non SR fuses?  There's GOT to be a better priced option that's just as good.

If an expensive fuse did nothing at all, most would keep it because it MIGHT be making a difference, the purchaser is past the angst of payment, and it still feels like a caring investment in the quality of the system they care about.  Since any returned fuses can be resold as new, the money back guarantee is a great marketing ploy.  But at these markups, no financial need to  resell them.

Its funny how nobody talks about the fact that system upgrades are all relative.

Replacing a fuse in a garbage amplifier made of 6 wires and radio shack components will do little. But removing a radio shack fuse made of junk metal in a $40k Kondo amp will free an incredibly weak link in an otherwise transparent system. Its like washing a filty dirty window in a Ferrari will cut your lap times in half because now you can confidently drive extremely fast, while the guy in a broken down wishy washy honda says "What kind of person claims that cleaning their window makes them cut their lap times in half?" because no matter how hard he drives, the car will only go 1 second faster to begin with. 

This goes for differences in system noise, poor power, etc. 

When people come here and speak with such objective certainty about components...makes me wonder.
Experiencers and Negativists. Two camps. I suspect the first camp have better sounding systems. Why? Because they’re willing to simply TRY. Because they’re willing to experiment...
That’s the only way to know for sure. It’s obvious by these posts who is who and the paradigm they exist within. 
Have I tried SR fuses...Yes. Make a difference? Enough of a difference to prove me wrong about what a fuse can do in hi-end audio components. I was as suspect as the next guy but I was willing to try. Glad I did.

How right you are. You have no idea. Come check it out some time. Freaking insane what can be achieved when you are willing to try. Especially if you are clever about what you try, and persistent. Absolutely freaking insane.
"The only argument you will find is from people like yourself questioning how and why. These kinds of things almost always come from people with no actual experience. Whereas virtually all the people who actually bother to listen wind up gushing amazing compliments and describing how much more clarity, dynamics and detail they are hearing, how much more real and palpable the image is, and so on. The reviews are all over the place. Reviews from people who actually paid money and bought the stuff and heard it.

People who have not done this, what they have to say is worth precisely zero. Absolutely zero."
Do you mean like when you mock and belittle Machina Dynamica products even though you have never used, heard, or have any experience whatsoever with said products?
Do you mean like that?
