Fuses that matter.

In the past I have had stock , Isoclean, and Furotech fuses in my Art Audio PX-25 tube amp, and my Marantz SA11-S2 SACD player. In June I replaced these fuses with Synergistic Research fuses. Since these were the power fuses at the A/C inlet the equipment does not have to be opened to change the fuse. Simply pull out the fuse tray below the plug and change the fuse.
I was quite impressed by the improvement the SR fuse made. The 3-D sound stage was much improved. Detail was improved but did not favor one frequency range at the expense of another. The sound was more detailed but more relaxed. I did not experence listener fatigue.
As easy as it is to swap power fuses in most equipment and no risk to return the fuses, I think this is a fun and rewarding experiment most audio hobbiests will enjoy doing.

What do you guys think about the comments from Roger A. Modjeski ,well known designer that ClioO9 was good enough to share ? Link to Audio circle on pg1 of this thread.After reading this I could not bring myself to try these fuses.Thank you ClioO9 and Roger Modjeski

I haven't read what Roger Modjeski stated or what was shared by Clio09.
What I do know is that the High Fi Tuning Supreme fuse works for me.
I do wonder though,if a very well known maker of ice cream said "Do not eat vanilla" would you not taste it and make your own decision ??

Thanks goes out to Roger Modjeski for bringing this to the attention of Music Reference owners. Roger carefully chooses the fuses used in his amps. He doesn't like to repair amps & neither do I.

Yes, I also brought up the potential risks with replacing fuses just for better sound a ways back in this thread as well.

When one is addicted to something, like the continuous pursuit of better sound, I suppose one is more disposed to take a gamble and roll the dice.

Besides, if the gear goes up sometimes afterwards who's to say the fuse was the cause.

I'm still with Modjeski. I can get the sound I want without overriding my vendors technical decision regarding the fuse used. Just because I can replace a part does not mean I should unless I really know exactly what I am doing.

To those who have and continue to enjoy better sound, more power to you. Just be sure you know what the hell you are doing before customizing expensive and complex electronic gear.
