Synergistic Red Fuse ...

So I found this thread a while back, spent some spare time reading through it and since already having first hand experience with power cords and wall receptacle changes I had to give the SR black fuse a try. Ordered one for my power amplifier from highend-electronics on March 7th installed it and left the amp on for about 80 hours, I must say quite impressed with the improvements. Even though there are a number of areas of improvement I was most happy with the increased micro dynamics, for me its mostly the fine details that make music so enjoyable.
After that I had to get one for my phono stage, that being a Fosgate Signature that I have spent significant time finding a tube compliment that sounds good to me in my system. Out went those tubes in went tubes of no consequence, installed the black fuse, powered it up for over 80 hours then put my listening tubes back in and fired it back up, this was yesterday and I am just amazed at the overall improvement.
Count me in as a believer in the SR black fuse!
Next up is a black for my Classe CT-SSP, I am sure it will make a difference, a power cord and receptacle change made a significant improvement. I will post my thoughts after this happens.
Thanks to everyone here,for making me aware of this wonderful and cost effective opportunity to greatly improve the enjoyment of listening to music on my home system. I truly think that trying to achieve a similar improvement with equipment upgrades would be very expensive, out of my reach at any rate.
Thank you oregonpapa for starting this thread and for your continuing interaction, I really got a good laugh from your popcorn post!

New fuse and new tubes! No wonder the night came early. Normally I would say leave your system on for 75 hours and then go to some on and off cycles to get to the 100 + hour mark. But not so with new tubes. Perhaps a better tube break in + fuse break in, would be on cycles of four to six hours with a short off cycle. George at Tube USA does believe tube break in should be done correctly. 

Perhaps Charles has some thoughts and experience on this topic.

Synergistic Research's website is never complete. A better source of their latest communication is on their Facebook site and their YouTube videos.
The best way to get information is to go to "Rocky Mountain Audio Fest", Denver, in October, or "The Show at Newport Beach, Calif "- June 2-4 (this year). Talking to the people who designed, tested , and build these products is very worthwhile. This approach applies to many other audio companies also.


I am looking forward to seeing Oregonpappa at Newport this year. 

It is going to be very interesting in how Graphene affects our lives. Samsung has committed One Billion Dollars to Graphene research this year.
