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?

I just checked my purchase file..bought my first slug of AVM in March 2008.
Painted the inside of SC4s back in '94 with Cascade Vbloc..gallon in each speaker..that made a hugh difference to seal away all that glue and mdf.

Use the new version of Cascade as it turns from purple to black when dry. So it can be carefully applied to some baffles and bezels or inside any box. Tom





@rauliruegas & @nonoise, thank you for your gracious and reasonable responses to my previous post.

To some of the other recent posters: Regarding "I am there" vs. "they are here," the following thread from 2010 may be of interest, in which there was an extensive and particularly intelligent discussion of exactly that question:

@theaudiotweak, Tom, am I correct in inferring from some of your recent posts that you consider the patent question about the Blue fuse to have been answered? If so, can you explain further?

The Blue’s description at the SR website states in part as follows:

The new SR BLUE Quantum Fuse was developed over a two year period and represents our most advanced UEF Technology to date. At its heart is a completely new UEF / Graphene coating that delivers a dramatic increase in resolution and holographic realism over SR Black....

... At Synergistic Research we’ve isolated key factors that affect how electricity propagates by changing the behavior of electrons through Inductive Quantum Coupling methods we collectively call UEF Tech. In fact, UEF Tech is so powerful even an electrical chain several miles long is fundimentally [sic] improved with nothing more than a single fuse engineered with our patented UEF Technology.

Yet none of the four patents we have determined to have been granted to Mr. Denney make any mention of fuses, UEF (Uniform Energy Field) technology, or Inductive Quantum Coupling.

Al,

You or I found Mr. Denney’s latest patent on line and posted its reference number on this thread. I don’t see any connection between any of his patents and black and blue fuses.

The latest patent has to do with an acoustic paint and is written in a typical broad and vague manner as if it was drawn for protection prior to a final operating product...TBD..like.

Using my phone right now but I think I remember something about activation by an electronic device. Could be part of the continuum of the UEF. Just thinking like I usually do on the crazy edges.

There are some old and some new methods on room or resonance control within a room or on a surface. Some of these work and are now expired patents. Most were described incorrectly from the outset and one that has worked for nearly 30 years is thought to control standing waves..when in fact it eliminates a portion of a specific wave type..

So it could be that acoustic paint formula could be activated by a transmission wave of sorts and produce a higher contrast audio event. Maybe ..kinda like movie screens have a different surface treatment to amplify light or boost contrast..or increase the viewing angle. Some screens do all three at the same time.

There are a couple new things coming one mechanical and one electronic both of which are well detailed as to why they work but need to be experienced in the first person to fully comprehend and understand..Both greatly enhance music and make for greater reality as was discussed in the link Al posted.. No paint. Tom

The acoustic paint is being applied to panels and then the panels placed on walls. Ted Denney's Facebook page has all of the info on it.  In addition to audio applications Denney wants to use it for industrial applications to dampen noise.

What is the difference between transporting the recording venue into your listening room, or you being transported into the recording venue?

I'm getting sound out of percussion instruments that are unbelievable.
