| Nietzsche and Runaway Audio Consumption What a silly read on this Christmas of 2021. I have worked long and hard to buy the gear to build my system. And now that I'm retired I shall enjoy the music my system brings forth. | |
| How do you get Happy as an Audiophile? What makes me the happiest is when I turn on the tubes. And all of them light up and work perfectly. | |
| The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses I'm with you ozzy. I have no idea why a fuse can make so much difference. It all adds up to a cheap upgrade. | |
| The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses The fuse direction on slow blow fuses is because they have a small diode at one end. The diode holds the incoming rush of voltage. If this type of fuse is installed the right way the high end is clean sounding. Not a dull sounding. | |
| RIP oregonpapa So sad. I was just getting to know him through the SR fuse postings. See you in the new world. | |
| The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses Exactly. It won't hurt the fuse if you install it wrong. The direction is only for slow blow fuses. Fast blow fuses don't have direction. | |
| The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses Well it finally happened with the SR purple fuses in my system. A week ago I bought another tube amp. The amp uses a different size fuse. So of course I'll have to buy another purple fuse. But what a upgrade to the amp for $200. | |
| Bully pulpits It's actually all in fun and no one ever gets a black eye. | |
| Products you added to your system in 2021 that made most impact to your music enjoyment Myself I got a Eastern Electric minimax dac. Modified it. Installed a full gear of SR purple fuses. | |
| Comparing Speaker Cables This is why cable companies give you 30 to 45 days to live with them. If you don't like what they are bring out of your system just return them. All cables are system dependent. | |
| Thank you millercarbon Myself I find it interesting. A guy can build a power cord. Make a business out of and be hated by others for no reason. If you don't want to buy his product, don't. But myself I think he has a good idea. | |
| The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses You are on the way to a new level or two. I added the 3rd and last one awhile ago. It's nearly burned in now. This afternoon my system took off into orbit. | |
| The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses My Audioquest Niagara 5000 doesn't have any fuses. I started with my dac. Then the cdt. Last was my amp. But starting with a purple fuse in the power conditioner makes a lot of sense to me. | |
| Not Sure If This Is OK Here, But Here Goes Run and don't look back. Don't mess around with that sale. | |
| A decent integrated amp under 2K ... A nice Jolida 302 tube amp would be good. Raven nighthawk or blackhawk would be winners. |
