Synergestic Black Fuse vs Audio Magic BeesWax

Like to ask if any Audiogon Members compared the Synergistic Black Fuse Vs The Audio Magic BeesWax ( top of line). Let me know what differences in sound quality, what equipment was it in, and how does it compare between the two fuse.   Current all my equipment has The Black fuses; I am just curious WTF Audio Magic is So Expensive!  Is it worth a big jump with the Audio Magic??

Any information on reseating an original fuse and noticing improvements?

Yup. You got it. Even a basic well made power supply is not going to change audibly with a change of fuse. If it does then you imagined it or your component doesn’t even have a decent power supply.

I just finished comparing my new Pass Labs INT-60 integrated amplifier with the factory fuse and with a Synergistc  Research Blue fuse. Both fuses now have 100 hours on them and so the amp has a total of 200 hours on it.
The improvement with the Synergistic Research Blue fuse is significant. 

david_ten : I hope you will try a Blue fuse in your system. I think it is a worthwhile experiment to undertake. If you have any questions feel free to call me. 575-644-1462

I can't believe that the usual suspects are still hawking their tired and repetitive crap about inferior power supplies and aging fuses that if designed right, would never show signs of aging. 

Are we all to believe that we should swap out fuses every 6 months?
If so, time to get a new hobby.

All the worse,
