| Synergistic Red Fuse ... A fuse is perhaps the least complicated part in electronics. Except for wires maybe, at least the normal kind.Fuses conduct electricity normally and blow out at certain designed current levels . Thats pretty much it. No two things ever perfor... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Geoff if you know just be nice and share and stop teasing the audiophiles. | |
| Neutral electronics are a farce... Cool Geoff.Glad to hear all is not lost.Do you think the engineers actually designing and building this stuff might be able to do it as well? Some, like the really good ones maybe even better? How about the successful end users setting this stu... | |

At normal PSIs anyhow.Lets face it it not that hard to keep accurate time these days. Just like its not that hard any longer to have ... | |
