By Alfred Kainz | 01 September, 2023 | Read more

Two new reviews of Synergistics's MASTER fuse are online.

John van Pole of hifi.nl: "...SR's Master Fuse is a breakthrough product in accessories for high end audio systems. Dedicated music lovers owning a precious system and demanding dynamic, refined and realistic reproduction of their music, really shortchange themselves by not trying the Master Fuse.

Rick Becker of Enjoy the Music: "...the Master fuse is an Olympic jump in both price and sound quality over Synergistic Research's Purple fuse.

We're happy to announce the first North American review for this exceptional amplifier has been published on The StereoTimes.

David Abramson wrote:
"...he has created an op-amp/tube combo circuit that really does combine the best of solid-state low-end punch and drive with the (not at all overdone) punchy/spacey liquidity of EL84 tubes in the mids and highs, resulting in a lively, spacious, punchy sound which occurs within expansive spaces that suggest much pricier ‘purist’ tube or solid-state amps..."

"...my hat is off, and my head is bowed to Shinobu Karaki-san. This one is special. If amplifiers were akin to people, the Aurorasound HFSA-01 might be Garland or Sinatra, born and bred to perform. In answer to your next question, yes, of course, I bought the review sample. I can’t let this one go..."

We're very glad to announce the first review and award for the exceptional Aurorasound HFSA-01 integrated EL84 amplifier.

Wojciech Pacula of HighFidelity.pl wrote:
"...it plays with an open, clear sound of extraordinary energy. Its sound is not muddied or lifeless, as it happens with large devices. At the same time, it has enough authority at the bottom of the band to show the scale of events, the volume of instruments and the depth of the soundstage... A beautiful example of minimalism in the spirit of zen combined with modern solutions. From us, a saturated, full of red color award the RED FINGERPRINT..."
