| Aesthetix Romulus Signature Upgrade Worth the $3,000 ? Hi Jim,I've heard the Apprentice with all of my components and my friends's Romulus but no other Aesthetic product. I feel that the results would be the same, very worthwhile. The various Apprentice models differ in the height of the br... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Hi Lak,You have a wonderful system. You will benefit significantly by upgrading to the premium tier of fuses. I've come to the conclusion that the better the system, the greater the impact of the fuses. High resolution systems reveal w... | |
| Aesthetix Romulus Signature Upgrade Worth the $3,000 ? I'll 2nd Grannyring's recommendations. A good friend of mine had his Signature upgraded to the Eclipse version and he uses the Star Sound Apprentice with very noticeable improvement. Duelund CAST or Jupiter Copper foil are exceptional soundi... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... The sound of my system still seems to be improving with the SR Red fuses. Listening to familiar recordings tonight and they sound gorgeous. It really feels like I'm in the actual presence of Sarah Vaughan "Sarah + 2", "Afters Hours"... | |
| Upgrading coupling caps - which ones first? I support the concept of beginning at the upstream position (source) and then progressively moving down the audio signal pathway. Replacing the output coupling capacitors in my DAC yielded more impact than changing the input coupling caps... | |

| Great Flugelhorn Recordings Hi Sal,Yep in regard to Art Farmer. Gerry Mulligan's "Night Lights" features a lot of Farmer's beautiful flugelhorn. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Hi Joe,My older Frankenstein MK II ( bought new in 2009) uses one 3 amp slo blo(that plugs into the rear of the amplifier). The SR Red is 3.15 amp(closest match). Your Franks are a newer version so you may or may not have the same size fuse. Joe; ... | |

| Hi End Fuses There's a current thread covering this very topic.It was started by Oregonpapa about the Synergistic Red fuses and it contains many opinions and listening impressions of this and other fuses.You may find it quite helpful. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Hi David,I bet your system with those pieces sounds marvelous. I wouldn't be surprised if the upgraded fuses have more impact on the source (DAC,Phono stage) and preamp than the power amplifier. I ordered the wrong size fuses for my DAC (my ... | |
