Synergistic Red Fuse ...
In any event, given the lack of meaningful technical data on the SR fuses I don’t think anyone can provide an answer to this question with any kind of certainty Given this when playing around with mains voltages, I’m saying it’s better to be safe... 
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
moving up 1 step for ampere rating is an acceptable practice. Moving up in amperage with mains fuses, is unsafe.  Doing this is a very unsafe practice.It will very likely burn out more than just the fuse. EG: regulators, rectifiers, or maybe even... 
Schiit Yggdrasil Upgrades
Synergistic Black fuse. There it is!!!!! Cheers George 
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
but have you tried a beeswax fuse Ear wax fuses are even better, as they have a more humane sound to them, they don't buzz like bees-wax ones, give them a go. I promised not give the suppliers name as he doesn’t want to rushed with orders. As he ... 
Which pre should I choose?
faust168   Which pre should I choose? Schiit Freya at $699 with trail period, it has 3 different modes, tube, solid state, and passive. Can't go wrong with this choice, specially seeing it's designed by Mike Moffat who was head designer at The... 
Schiit Yggdrasil Upgrades
Conclusion: I will not not be modding my Yggy per audioman58’s hallucinations.  Same with this statement he made." There is 6 Wima caps per channel 12 in total. Without question in the signal path."Cheers George   
HOLO Audio Spring DAC: Affordable discrete R2R Multibit Dac, could be a winner.
I am not interested technology-wise, but sound-wise. Lots of initial excitment over at SNA forums. New Holo Audio Spring Dac - R2R and DSDBy rocky500, August 28, 2016, 492 replies, 23,055 views http://www.stereo.net.au/forums/topic/110550-new-hol... 
HOLO Audio Spring DAC: Affordable discrete R2R Multibit Dac, could be a winner.
For those interested, here is an in depth comparison of the Metrum Pavane vs The Holo Spring Dac.http://earphiles.org/index.php/2017/02/04/metrum-pavane-vs-holo-spring-dac/ Cheers George  
thinking of downsizing
tzh21y Hi.You could try again Schiit products here, and pocket allot of dollars with the sale of your Pass Labs x1 and xono. Schiit is owned by Mike Moffat, and was head designer for Theta, so he knows his stuff. Most of the manufacturing dollars ... 
Crossover capacitor voltage ratings....
chills Don’t forget Solen caps, one of the largest if not largest manufacturers. "Some" of the boutique caps are just re-baged Solens. If you do your homework you’ll see they are identical in every dimension, capacity, voltage rating, even the sa... 
Pre-amp upgrade time?
source can have bass issues due to the output coupling capacitance and higher distortion due to greater load current. if the resistance value of the potentiometer is low, the source can have bass issues due to the output coupling capacitor. Exac... 
Soekris ApS dac1101 another discrete R2R Multibit dac.
Yggdrasil should be arriving in a few days... R2R Multibit shootout, love it!!!!!Cheers George 
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
Sorry but there is no conversation on this topic, as your not prepared to. That you name the members here who are highly technical, that back your findings of these $$$ mains fuses.1: Being directional 2:That can magically escalate the sound qual... 
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
George, you really don't get the whole Appeal to Authority thing, do you? I just don't get shysters, preaching this sort of voodoo, like I said please.That you name the members here who are highly technical, that back your findings of these $$$... 
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
Is it so hard??All I ask is that you voodoo’ist name the members here who are highly technical, that back your findings of these $$$ mains fuses.1: Being directional 2:That can magically escalate the sound quality of ones system. Cheers George
