Multiple Samples

With the Synergistic Research Quantum Red, Hi-Fi Tuning Supreme, and Audio Magic Premier Beeswax, we have multiple samples. Some have been used in several people's gear. Others are brand new.

Yes, the only change made was the fuse. When we install a new AM Premier Beeswax, we first listen in one direction. Then we power off the component, flip the fuse the other way. At least with the gear we have, and the these samples of the AM Premier Beeswax, these fuses were indeed directional. That is, in the "wrong" direction, they sound slower, more bloated and congested.

Unlike a few years ago, I do not have the train of audio products coming through. Thus, I nowadays do have more time to play with the few audio products sent to me. I've been into high-end audio since 1990. I take listening notes, so I can keep track of how products change (or no change) over time.

It took months, but we eventually acquired more samples of the AM Premier Beeswax. By comparing the well-used samples against brand-new samples, we can confirm the effects (if any) of burn-in.

Since I am currently reviewing the Simaudio Neo 260D CD player, which will take me another 2-3 weeks, I have not made any more posts about the AM Premier Beeswax. I've taken a couple of photos of these fuses, will use them later. Those who hound/stalk/follow me already know this, and are (patiently or not) waiting for my output.

While all that is going on, as I type this, three audiophiles have sent some of their cables to me, so I can condition them on an audiodharma Cable Cooker. Despite not getting the train of gear I used to in the 00s, my audio plate remains full :-) Yep, the audio stuff is on top of the music lists, suggestions, and background I provide for fellow audiophiles.

So, what are your experiences?
