Graphene Sluggo - Unlocking Sonic Scenery
I sleep great because my sound system is top notch.  
Graphene Sluggo - Unlocking Sonic Scenery
The advantage of getting a SDFB is that you can remove the main fuse. But you need to replace it with something, either by inserting a slug or doing surgery on your component and bypassing the fuse holder with wire. Most people go with a slug. My ... 
Graphene Sluggo - Unlocking Sonic Scenery
@highstream Good question. I wrote "appropriately warm" in the section about the pre-burn-in period, but actually it was overly warm for my system when I first installed them in my amp. That there is a copper core was obvious to me. It's hard to d... 
Graphene Sluggo - Unlocking Sonic Scenery
@larryi Since this isn’t a scientific paper about special material electrical properties seeking peer review and publication, the precise answer to your question is that there is no claim being made about the Graphene Sluggo product. It’s just a h...

One thing I recommend is handling any graphene product with nitrile gloves, and the bonus is that no skin oils get on the g-slug surface.

@tksteingraber I think you should go for the g-slug. The return policy is great, but you won’t be returning it. At least not your first one or two.

I haven't used VeraFi's rhodium plated slug, but it's interesting to me. I'm a big user of rhodium plated AC and signal cable connectors. I've used hollow silver slugs, but it didn't quite work out for me... same with brass. There's someone on thi...

@highstream Hi, I can see how you’d think that because I previously used quite a lot of NPS-Q45T, but I stopped using it over a year ago and removed it from my cables to get a more natural sound. I can tell you with certainty that it is not the sa...

@gita Yes! Definitely improved timbre. To me that falls under a combination of two things I did mention, tonality and textures. And I was telling a friend about much improved low SPL listening a few days ago due to the g-slugs, and I intended to m...

Hi roxy54, Even Einstein doubted the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanical theory, so I understand your position. I'm more of a listen and decide guy than a theorist.  
Graphene Sluggo - Unlocking Sonic Scenery
For anyone that skipped paragraph 2 or didn't understand it's meaning, the gist is that you must have a SDFB installed, as per the company's instructions, as overcurrent protection in order to remove the main fuse from a component and use a slug i... 
Graphene Sluggo - Unlocking Sonic Scenery
For the serious audio tweak people, when I was changing from graphene slugs to copper and back, I took care to maintain the original directionality of the slugs in the fuse holders. Otherwise, I would have waited a number of hours for burn-in and ... 
Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like"
Final update: I went with a Member Review for graphene sluggos HERE  
Graphene Sluggo - Unlocking Sonic Scenery
Larry, did you read everything I wrote? You might have missed some of the points I made. 1) In the beginning of paragraph 2, I said "For info on the prerequisite purchase needed to use g-slugs..." and "Slugs replace fuses in your components’ fuse... 
Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like"
Small update -- I’m now waiting on a couple more graphene sluggos to arrive and burn in a bit before doing final, focused testing between the G-slugs (😁) and the mirror-polished copper slugs, as there’s some subtle differences that I’d like to def...
