| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I improved my system by about 20% of what the fuses have done by replacing the 6SN7 cathode follower tubes in my amps today. I had 1950s GE tubes which Andy of Vintage Tube Services stated they are mediocre at best. He told me to stick with RCA an... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... GK, I also have a quasi-high end analog set-up, a VPI TNT VI mod./SME IV mod./Benz Ruby 3, isolation platform/Audio Interface SUT and $15K custom phono stage. About $30K+ and properly aligned. I just counted 79 RFR and FR pressings. I have hear... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Low bass performance on the Mercury CDs are not lacking at all in any of the 3 pressings. They sound veryI focused, dynamic and tonally correct. I also have about 50 RFR and FR Lps and most of the Golden Presence(?) reissues. The early LPs vary in... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Audio equipment which can measure the same (such as amps), can sound vastly different (unless one is Julian Hirsch). Tubes and wire can measure the same and again sound totally different. LPs which are pressed consecutively using the same stampe... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Wolf-Garcia and Georgelofi (your name indicates your concern for audio sound quality)-Leave this site to the believers. We don't want or need your sarcastic, uneducated remarks. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Highstream. I find that the SR black fuses increase the color and certainly the texture of instruments. The added detail and ambience give more life to the music, not just leading edge transients. Maybe in his system the SR fuses aren't working we... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... FM Acoustics also makes a record denoiser device requires much more user knowledge (the sugar cube is simple to use). And sells for $37,500. Ouch! | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I have 7,000 78s and 100,000s of pre-LP recordings on CD and Vinyl. I play my 78s on a VPI 19-4 Ultracraft AC-400 and Grado elliptical cartridge. While this cartridge is acceptable for most post 1925 electric recordings, I don't get the best soun... | |
| Wilson Audio Haters dlcockrum’s 12-24 post concerning varying degrees of imaging and depth are what I have found to be the case of my main listening room. For several years using Legacy Focus speakers with EAR 864 pre-amp, I had lost my soundstage depth. For the last... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Kedoades, you can obtain Elliott’s recommendation at Synergistic Research. I had to move from a 5 to an 8 amp slo-blo fuse due to the immense size of my custom amp’s capacitors. He recommended the same as rated size fast blow fuses for my solid st... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Robert came over to hear what 2 fuses & a duplex has done to my system. He thought it never sounded so rich and detailed; however, he used his critical ear and heard a slight closed in sound and lower mid suck out. He told me that the.side w... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... First, my wife is a very impartial and impatient person who I inflict my audio changes to. I did the same A/B test that an Optometrist does to a patient. No hinting as to which I preferred. She indicated she clearly preferred one direction over an... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Dave, you are 100% correct in your 12/26 post, the black fuses sounded glorious for the first 10 hours, then yesterday and today at 11 to 20 hours, the system sounded mediocre, comparable to mid-fi solid state from the 80's, tonally thin, undynami... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I’m laughing because there is no warranty on my amps or preamp. They are Grover Huffman custom designs of which there are four or five made. Obviously, the amps are operating just fine with the higher rated SR fuses and Elliott of SR suggested tha... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I'm quoting myself from 12/22 As to the blown main amp fuses, SR Elliott is sending 8 amp fuses because my big amps have a massive pair of capacitors each as opposed to multiple small caps like most modern amps. He said that the big caps dra... |
