The New Synergistic Research Purple Fuses
Hi Frank, Wow, when I first stumbled upon Audiogon I was struck how such nasty comments were coming from middle aged men (which is a misnomer). Or should I say men who are closer to there end times in age and bully others like spoiled children wi...

NOTE: always check that your dealer honors the 30-day no-risk money back guarantee and if not, choose a different dealer. Yes, I should have made it clear that some dealers such as Parts Connexion in Canada does not have a 30-day no-risk money ...

And what’s worrying is 50 to 100 to break in, by that time for me it’s too late to send back for refund if I don’t like it/them, not prepared to take the gamble on that one. Thanks Andy, Depending on where and how many fuses you want to use, yo...

It’s called a return policy for a refund! Not only that, you can pay by using pay pal, some other payment system or a debit card to get your money back. This is an audio hobby! That has nothing, nothing to do with: quasi psychology drug addicti...

Adding a “safe haven” forum for discussion of tweaks?
Thanks TC, I knew it was always Agon’s decision, but as I stated before, other threads without discourse to this day have gone on for years, talking about the same things. And multiple threads talking about the same things? Is a very common occu...

One caveat, however, is they warn that their fuses aren’t for all components. Specifically gear with “no inrush protection“ will cause their fuse to blow prematurely.   What is ’inrush protection’? Is that just pertaining to tube preamps and t... 
Adding a “safe haven” forum for discussion of tweaks?
thecarpathian But, from what I've discerned, I don't believe the threads are being shut down because of discord. I believe they are being shut down for being repetitive, as there were several fuse threads all basically taking identical paths. ... 
Adding a “safe haven” forum for discussion of tweaks?
thecarpathian and builder3, Thank you for your thoughtful insight, responses and lessons. Much appreciated. But it still is a shame that when discourse is added to like minded sharing discussion, the moderators get triggered somehow and shut it ...

Adding a “safe haven” forum for discussion of tweaks?
While your solution sounds tempting superficially, it would just create an atmosphere of mistrust and members would have apprehension about expressing their opinions. I think that it’s best just to ignore the annoying posts and there will be fewe...
