In Reply to: RE: what did you really notice when upgrading or bypassing the fuse posted by pictureguy on September 19, 2010 at 22:40:23
...previous post where I stated: “This past week I’ve removed the fuses on my 1.6 – everything within the soundstage seems to be better defined” this is indeed quite true however the fuse bypass can’t be credited ... let me explain.
On Saturday finally opened the connection plates to bypass fuses – to my surprise the fuses had been already bypassed albeit slightly different configuration that I'm still not comprehending fully ( see link below ) - regardless I’ve been fuseless over two years - Placebo at its best? At the time fuses were removed from the holders major tweaking was performed on speaker/chair placement – the critical/controversial tweak was perhaps going from a 3° back tilt to a 5° forward tilt plus chair fussing - the improvement in sound as described arrives from placement - the fuse tweak in this case was a given but was never told ☺

The forward tilt is also recommended by Jim Smith in his book Get Better Sound . It work's for me. I'm a big fan of Jim's approach to setup. Have you read his book?

Jim’s book was prime motivator in aligning center of panels to seat height.
