Swiss Digital Fuse Box Anyone?

Good Morning and Happy New Year All

Multiple Fused products can be used with SDFB safely -

Just replace the Mains Fuse Only - this is hwo the product was designed

A note for End Users in the EU etc.

Please consider one of our NEMA 15 type Piggy Tails from OUTPUT of SDFB to IEC input on your gear.

THEN - use your original Power Cable from the wall to the INPUT side of SDFB.

We now have well over 200 SDFB in the EU working this way perfectly. SAFE and Great Results.

Fuse Box MAX (13 amps to 32 amps) shipping successfully herer and abroad.

Swiss Digital Active Cable coming shortly along with our A49 Class A Amplifier.

More to follow

Many thanks for the incredible Support all of you have given us

Best wishes - Mark

Voici mon retour sur le sdfb :
J'ai un système fini à mon avis; je n'ai plus besoin ni envie de changer de matériel.
Une fois le câblage mis à niveau de manière satisfaisante, je garde des options pour le peaufiner ou le régler si cela semble en valoir la peine.
J'ai abandonné les fusibles audiophiles après que deux exemplaires aient explosé en allumant mon Innuos Statement et vu la course marketing folle dans laquelle SR et consorts veulent nous entraîner... J'ai placé quelques pare-feux Lessloss en amont du streamer, du DAC et des enceintes avec des résultats intéressants.
De retour sur les posts de fusibles audiophiles je découvre avec intérêt le SDFB de Vera-Fi : fini les fusibles hors de prix qui risquent de griller un jour ou l'autre.
Je n'ai jamais connu un fabricant aussi proche de ses clients confirmés ou potentiels : excellente communication, très réactif d'un homme charmant et pas avare de cadeaux commerciaux qui plus est....
J'ai commencé avec un Sdfb sur l'innuos sur les conseils d'un participant à ce post (merci à lui ).
Résultat célèbre et surprenant dès les premières notes. Non, ce n'est pas comme un changement d'appareil, ce n'est pas un nouveau son, c'est toujours votre système mais ça fait plus de musique... Plus de profondeur et d'air, une meilleure séparation des plans sonores, plus d'ambiance, des chanteurs plus proches et plus incarnés, des aigus déstressés, des basses plus fermes et texturées, une musique plus fluide, plus rapide et plus articulée. Bref, plus de tout, c'est plus immersif et vivant. Mêmes effets lorsqu'on ajoute un sdfb en amont du préampli et du dac.
Inconvénient, le seul pour moi, l'ajout de câbles de liaison (Piggy tail extrem dans mon cas) qui densifient le réseau derrière le système...
À la maison, c'est le meilleur accessoire que j'ai pu greffer à mon système.

Mon expérience exactement. Excellent travail d'articulation de vos impressions. J'ai du mal avec les adjectifs descriptifs, donc j'ai tendance à utiliser des analogies visuelles. Par exemple, avec le SDFB juste avant le Gold Note Integrated, j'entends de la musique comme Gold Note l'avait prévu. Pensez-y de cette façon, vous prenez une belle photo extérieure parfaitement agréable. Paysage avec ciel disons. Joliment composé, exposition parfaite, beaucoup de détails. Ensuite, vous mettez un filtre polarisant sur l'appareil photo et prenez une photo identique. Tout d'un coup, vous êtes attiré par l'image. C'est plus dynamique, plus accueillant. Vous avez un viscéral, plus personnel, plus émotionnel. C'est ce que le SDFB fait pour moi.

For European enthusiasts equipped with amplifiers with C19 sockets, does Mark Shifter offer a solution to integrate these SDFBs?

If you can wire a plug, you can do it yourself
 
@Rhodium

Thanks so much for your very kind review. I had a direct Google Translation and I'm appreciative for your kind words

Our web site has had many upgrades in these last few months, and we now have an FAQ Section for most products. There is a specific FAQ for those in the EU wanting to utilize SDFB in their systems - and how best to do this. Please see this section near the bottom of the SDFB page on our site.

@MacF

Thanks so much - :)

Best wishes - Mark

I would love to try this with my Rogue amp so I went to the Vera-Fi website. A 5 amp 6X32 Swiss Digital Fuse Box with Graphene Sluggo and 1 foot extreme Piggy tail is $1524 Canadian. Ouch!
Still might do it as I’m a sucker for these tweets. Or maybe get one for my Coincident Statement Phono power supply. What would be the better unit to try? The amp draws more power but also has 4 200ma tube fuses after the main fuse.

I count 1140 Cad + shipping

I have several of these in my system and I will say there is no way I would pay what the current market price is. Not that big of an improvement at today's price.
 
Hmm... I missed that the large sluggo size is the killer, taking it to CAD 1423 before shipping at market conversion rates

I found biggest impact on my amp and that was replacing two $1300 QSA fuses. Value really depnds i think on cost of overall system. $5,000 system maybe not, > $20,000 worthwhile proportional improvement I would think. Also vs upgrade to equipment, no loss of investment.

Code now Active

Enjoy
Hi Mark.
Thank you for your post and generous offer. Not sure exactly what you mean. Is the code “Merry Christmas “?
I think I may take you up on your offer. Would you recommend getting the SDFB for my Rogue tube amp main fuse (which also has four tube fuses) or for the power supply for my Coincident Phono Stage/ preamp?

YES Indeed

We always want the Mains Fuse and rating etc.

What I mean is this - when you check out our system will ask iof you have a this is fraud. Simply type in Merry Christmas and the discount will come right off the top line amount.

I can say this much - more than 70% of SDFB Owners come back for a 2nd 3rd etc. - Phono Stage will be excellent - but amp first please.

Many thanks

Mark

Well I can’t resist, so I went to order one for my amp. Unfortunately, it says shipping isn’t available to my address (Ontario) . Not sure why that would be, but looks like no SDFB for me, unless you can explain how to work around this Mark.

I just did, thanks.
For some reason I really want to try this SDFB now. I love tweaking my existing equipment, I think I’m done with major equipment purchases (except for cartridges of course)…..

As the original founder of Dynavector USA (1979) = I totally get that :)

Please keep in touch with me. 40 hours gets you 75% - 150 gets 85% and 400 is Full Tilt Boogie

ENJOY!
