| Synergistic Red Fuse ... ^^^ Joe ... As I stated before, I replaced the SR RED fuse in my ARC amp about a week ago with an SR Black fuse.. I don't know if its a synergy thing or not now that I have other Black fuses in the system, but its safe to say that the amp has aff... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... ^^^Having musicians in the family is a real bonus. One of my grandsons plays the bassoon at the concert level. He lives in Chicago, but when he comes home, he practices at my daughter's and son-in-law's home where he stays. I always try to take in... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... wolf-garcia ...Its very comforting to know that someone, somewhere, voted you in as the spelling, punctuation and grammar Nazi for the site. Also comforting to know that you are watching our backs by taking a protection mode to ward off the prof... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... ^^^ Insert part A (SR Black fuse) into part B (ARC REF-75se) and the synergistic magic happens. :-) | |
| Ref-75-SE delivered ... ^^^ Thanks, Joe. Music has been a passion, along with good literature since I was a child. My mother was the big influence on me. She had a good collection of 78's and a decent record player. I used to get up early on Sunday mornings and quietly... | |
| Ref-75-SE delivered ... ^^^ Hi, joeind ...I just checked the amp. It now has 1744 hours on it from new. I'm a long way from re-tubing, but when I do, I have a spare set of KT-150's that I pulled out of my REF-75 before I sold it. They have, maybe, a total of 250 hours o... | |
| Tube dampeners on ARC gear ... FREE TWEAK smotojo ..I have a friend that uses ARC tube dampeners on his "other than" ARC amp. don_c55 ...What kind of measurements have you don't to assess the "thermal flow?" Can you supply a study or a link? Thanks ...OP | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... tbg ... Too old for vinyl? When does that happen? :-)Newport is almost here. Looking forward to meeting some of you folks. OP | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... clifton ...If the fuse is installed in the "wrong" direction, the sound will be somewhat diffused as if the system is out of phase. The sound stage may appear to be a little wider but don't be fooled by that. When the fuse in in the "right" direct... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Goldencutt ...Loved your picture analogy. All of the harshness will go away when the fuses finally break in. That's when the "picture" comes forth in full relief. Its pretty amazing really. OP | |
| THE SHOW AT NEWPORT BEACH 2016 I'll be there with my friend Robert on Saturday and Sunday. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... nyame ...Your last post was excellent and right to the point. For tonight's listening session, I pulled out one of my favorite CD's. Its a private recording of a live event featuring the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra accompanying a young pian... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... ^^^^"Can you believe it, there are even people who don’t hear the effect of aftermarket fuses or directionality?"Based on my experience with the SR Black fuses, I DO find it hard to believe. Very hard. I have to question what else is going on in... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... dbarger ...The ARC REF-6 pre amp is on the bucket list ... as is the new ARC phono stage. The REF-3 and the PH-8 that's in the system now are great performers ... so good that I haven't felt the need to upgrade even to the REF-5-se. But with the ... |
