The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses


This thread is intended for those who are actually using the new SR Purple Fuses. In my system, they are a significant improvement over the SR Orange fuses. What are your impressions?

Anyway thank you @dabel for your suggestion.
 

Happy new year and stay all safe my friends!

A member no longer on A'gon would say that it was because all wire, including in fuses, is directional due to the extruding process.  Hoping you can shed some light on this.
 

That is the prevailing theory, yes. It is also a predictable and repeatable phenomenon. The only complicating factor, when a cable in an audio system has multiple conductors, if all conductors were not aligned for directionality, so that they are all in the same direction relative to their pull or cast as formed, determining directionality becomes splitting the difference between how many conductors are going in one direction and how many in another which can make differences less dramatic. But when you have a single conductor, or all are aligned, it’s incredibly easy to hear the difference.

Dear @ted_denney 

I hope you will find the time to verify the possibility to produce the Purple fuse slow blow 5x20mm of the rate 3A following our previous emails.

if not let me thank you anyway for your kindness 

@lucapelliccioli after researching with a handful of US dealers and audiophiles we have found that many have 3.15 amp fuses presumably stock or from the factory. I understand you don’t feel comfortable putting in a fuse that is .15 amp over rating, and we respect that. But it does not appear to be a problem from our query.
