Fuses that matter.
Gbmcleod, thanks for the report. I am not at all surprised by the comparison with the HF golds. That with the SR will be very interesting. 
BMC DAC Pre
Pacificdigital, like Dallasjustice, I have the BMC DAC1 PRE which I use with the new BMC M2 amps. The DAC1 only has balanced outputs to allow the Current Injection mode with BMC amps. I also have the new USB asynchronous input board. I have never ... 
BMC MCCI vs Roksan Reference DXP SE
The BMC MCCI requires no loading, but does require balanced inputs. It is exceptional. I should say, however, that I have never heard the Roksan.

Mtrot and Alpass, initially I was struck by the brightness of the CT-1, but it settled down shortly afterwards. If I recall correctly, the next day it was more balanced. It is the ease and clarity of the top end that is most impressive with the HF...

Charles1dad, I use a SP Dif HF cable, but there are too many different digital cables, such as USB, FW, optical, Estat, Ethernet, etc. I liked the SP Dif cable. 
WA-Quantum GmbH's Quantum Chips
Davidpritchard, I would be very concerned about throwing the cd out of balance. I would also be concerned about the Chip being thrown off. 
Fuses that matter.
Gbmcleod, I should have added that the Synergistic Research Quantums with the WA Quantum fuse Chip is still the best.

Just one additional experience with the High Fidelity cable that suggests how revealing they are. I had my Weiss DAC202 which is used entirely to convert FW into SP Dif for input into my Exemplar prototype dac. It was on Syner. Res. MIGs on top of... 
WA-Quantum GmbH's Quantum Chips
Boeing, they are quite component specific and their expense varies greatly. Some are very effective and others much less so. Everything is trial and error.Gbmcleod, my old Western Electric and Reimyo 300B amps took a long time to sound their best....

Gbmcleod, the AMR are better. 
Fuses that matter.
Gbmcleod, as another person who has gone through your experiences with the HI Fi Supremes and Syn. Res. Quantums, both with WA Quantum fuse Chips, I am struck with how much I agree with you. The SR Quantums gain substantially from the addition of ...

Geoffkait, I would be surprised if any true audiophile does know this, but perhaps doesn't bother.Roxy54m, i apparently misunderstood the second part of your post. Sorry. 
Fuses that matter.
Roxy54, on one hand I agree with you-just try a fuse and see if you like it. But you are also suggesting, I think, that audiophile fuses sound the same. I reject this idea.

Calloway, you have a complete Ultimate system? Wow! And if I recall you haven't had it all that long, so it must still be getting better. Having heard the CT-1s, CT-1Es, and CT-1Us, is the move from Enhanced to Ultimate as great as the step up to ...

Rx8man, having heard and entire CT-1 Enhanced system, you will be in for a shock when you hear such a system.
