john sin (not john yew) of CMY passed me this cryo'ed fuse (20A, slow-blow) which is supposed to do a lot of good to my richard gray 600s.
i put in on and immediately heard a slight increase in micro details - instruments like brushes, cymbals and chimes seems to have more extensions and even the bass tightens up with better outline and delineation.
it is akin to "hand-stretching" the tonal spectrum apart, giving the extra extension in highs and lows. initially i detected a slight hardening of mids, but after a night's run-in the problem is gone. in fact, the mids are crispy, airy and lips movement of the vocalist become even more apparent. there is also some slight improvement in focus. my only gripe is that it is less "organic" compared to the one without the cryo treatment.
at RM90 a piece, i don't need to think. the cryo'ed fuse has all the hifi qualities that you dream of at a fraction of the price of interconnects/speaker cables. in terms of percentage, i would say it brings about another 3% of improvement to my system.
owners of richard grays, do yourself a favour. try this fuse and report your findings here.
