Horning owners what amps have you used?
Amuseb1,That sounds like a wonderful system you've put together.  No doubt that it performs as beautifully as you describe. Your amplifier is another example of quality over quantity of power when matched with the right speakers. Congratulations t...

Lak,When I ordered my Yamamoto back in 2010 I had to wait about 2 months for the shipment from Japan  (probably  not built until order is received ). Upon the very first listen I knew that the wait was worth it. I've been happy with it ever since....

Hi Bob,I'm familiar with the Veloce preamplifier and the Playback Designs player,  you have assembled a very fine system. With the addition of the Black fuses I certainly see how you arrive at your  "happy place ". Charles,

Hey Frank, What amplifier and source does Bob use?Charles,

Frank, Venture speakers are very good.  I heard a Venture system(their speakers and amplifiers ) at CES a few years ago. Even under show conditions the sound of that room was exceptionally engaging,  music rather than hifi, very memorable. Those f...

No problem Lak. I didn't know that you have two of these DACs. Charles,

To finish my point Jond, the Yamamoto DAC like all really good components seems to respond to better power  cables and fuses. That's been my experience anyway. Charles

Jond,II find the premium fuses so interesting. When I first tried them I began with the SR Quantum 20.sound quality took a step backwards in my Frankenstein SET amplifier but improved after about 1 week of regular use. This same fuse placed in the...

Hi scott,I just saw your question on my system page.  I left a reply for you on that site. Charles,

Hi Jond,If you pull the fuse in a downward motion it will pop out.  You'll push the new fuse in an upward direction and it will snap into place. So it's vertical rather than horizontal manipulation. Charles,

Hi Jond,When you pull the fuse tray out there are two fuses. The outer one is the spare and the innermost fuse is the functional one. I placed the Black fuse in the normal reading i.e. left to right position. Charles, Keith, When you consider the ...

Hello Scott, The CSL and the Frankenstein  use the same 3 amp slo blo small size fuse. SR provides a 3.15 amp which have been fine for me. Charles,

Hi Jond,You are correct,  the Yamamoto DAC can process up to 192K. I only use 16/44.1 and thus exposing my own bias based on my listening habits.  It's good to know that it handles 96K " brilliantly ". Regarding the "Full House " the version of "B...

David, The Yamamoto YDA-01 a is a one trick pony as it is limited to 16/44.1 Redbook only. The good news is that it renders it so organically, it just sounds right. I'm listening to a live recording of Wes Montgomery "Full House " and it is  a joy...

Jond,Hey why not? This is the best  way to determine which fuse is better in your system. Charles,
