Synergistic Red Fuse ...


I installed a SR RED Quantum fuse in my ARC REF-3 preamp a few days ago, replacing an older high end fuse. Uhh ... for a hundred bucks, this little baby is well worth the cost. There was an immediate improvement upon installation, but now that its broken in (yes, no kidding), its quite remarkable. A tightening of the focus, a more solid image, and most important of all for my tastes, a deeper appreciation for the organic sound of the instruments. Damn! ... cellos sound great! Much improved attack on pianos. More humanistic on vocals. Bowed bass goes down forever. Next move? .... I'm doing the entire system with these fuses. One at a time though just to gauge the improvement in each piece of equipment. The REF-75se comes next. I'll report the results as the progression takes place. Stay tuned ...

Any comments from anyone else who has tried these fuses?

Oregonpapa, 
Based on your description of the Black fuses impact, if I have the same results I'll never be able to leave my listening room. 😀😀

I turned the CD player off before going to bed last night. Turned back on this morning at 9am.  Still amazing in every way.

Charles ...

I hope the blacks turn out well for you. They are amazing. 

By the way Charles ... how would I contact you via your Email or PM? I have something for you.
