I bought 3 pairs and a Caldera 10 sub and matching stands for an office 5.1 Dolby Surround System. Fantastic as is Mark and his team!
The AC Tuming X is yet another product from Veri-Fi whose benefits punch way above its cost! There is an easily noticable increase in resolution, but it presents as a clearer separation of instruments/voices, more palpable images set in a more defined space, a larger soundstage with a lot more depth (if in the recording). Everything sounds more natural. Well done Mark!
Shipping was slow, but the speakers live up to their reputation. Very heavy, well built & amazing sound out of a speaker so small. Definately punch way above their price range.
These connected to each other within seconds. Easily connected to phone with bluetooth. Tried with a couple of different pairs of bookshelf speakers and they both sounded good. They were on sale for GF . Will see if they are reliable and have longevity . They were in stock so not a long wait for them to arrive .
I’ve tried almost all the expensive fuses on the market and they all improved the component in some ways. However, I always worried that the sound improvement would diminish over time with these expensive fuses.
For reference, these are being used in a very high end and highly resolving system. This is the 7th Swiss Digital Fuse Box that I have purchased and will likely buy more. Compared to the other high end fuses that I’ve owned, I find the improvements in all area of performance, rather than just some areas. Noticeable uptick in resolution, soundstage, without any coloration. Also, they do not lean out tonality or make the bass tubbier. Some of the other fuses made the bass a little out of proportion with the other frequencies. I find the SDFB to be the most balanced of any fuse that I’ve tried and I don’t need to be concerned with the improvement in sound quality diminishing with time. Easy recommendation!
I have Graphene Sluggos in my Decware amplifier and preamplifier along with my modified Cambridge Audio CXV2 DAC/streamer. I just added a fourth in my Space Tech Labs STR-1002-Super (tube rectifier). Wow, just as with previous equipment this little metal rod added another level of increased dimensionality and realism to my listening experience. Highly recommended.
Sound amazing with my Vanguard Scouts. I recommend for wireless setup!
I love the large style and the sturdy feel of these stands! All you might need for your bookshelves to sit at ear level. Easy to put together and they look great!
I purchased 2 pairs of the Scout's! wow I am very impressed with the sound and the amazing clarity coming from the beautiful little boxes! I sat a pair downstairs on my Tube system just for fun. I may need to purchase another set for this system! Beautiful sound and the finish on the speakers will just blow you away!
twin 10 inch subs! Yes please! such great little monsters...the pair fill my small home theater with enough wall rattling bass to make the wife remove some things from the walls!!
I first tried the Snubway and Mainstream in my main system. Unfortunately, I have no spare outlets, so I used regular double adapters to attach the Subway and Mainstream. After some experimentation, I realised that the cheap double adapters were degrading the sound dramatically, so this implementation was abandoned.
I then added the Snubway and Mainstream to the outlet and power board in the Modem/Router room.
Here I much more success, and although the improvements were subtle, they were clearly audible. The sound became calmer and less edgy, the treble a little smoother and the soundstage being slightly more fleshed out with added solidity and body.
I have now ordered a second subway and an infinity fuse. Thanks to Mark and the Vera-fi team for an affordable and effective range of audio tools.
Lower noise floor, more detail and texture, better soundstage.
The finish doesn’t seem to be a very high-quality

It's hard to believe that a speaker this beautiful, sounding this spectacular is less than $500. I am impressed.
I have mine for a week or so; I have more on order, including the Snubway. But just this one unit has made an impact for the positive, so I am hoping to build on this. It is outlet d, and depending on which outlet it is plugged into, the results can vary, depending on the outlet position in the room. I put my in the Garage by the 1st AC outlet n to the fuse box after reading on that would be a good place for one unit, and they were right, right away the TV Sound bar and the 3 subwoofers connect sounded more dynamic, and the sound was more natural and with more body, what surprised me was on the 2nd level where my Stereo is it made a positive impact there also, I went down and unplugged it and went up and listened again and there was a drop off in presence, body and weight to the music as well as lacking the detail, piano is what I used with a stand up bass, to keep it simple, all sound more real with the one unit plugged into the outlet by the fuse box, so one is staying when I get the others I will built from there and see the extra ones impact, Mark is going to send me a package that he feels will work best for my system, Mark been great even took the time to call me to answer some questions on his products and which would be best for my needs. So try different outlets, let the unit burn-in for a week or so, the only time it hurt the sound was when I put it in the outlet before the Core balanced line conditioner; those two did not play nice together at all, lost mid-bass and bass, sound was thin, but that was the only time, I will try a Snubway there when I receive it. A good product, give it a try.
Not used them yet but packaging and their presentation first rate. I have switched them on to check they work, but they give a disconcerting thump when switched off.
Great product, really cleaned up noise I didnt realize was there. Greater clarity, detail, separation of notes. Had Main Stream first for a while and this was ok, but only when I added Snubway to my system did I realize what I was missing.
I'm really enjoying this subwoofer. It adds a deeper dimension to my listening experience, just as I hoped it would. Thanks to Mark and his team for great communication and a great product.
Really good uplift in soundstage, tonality and dynamics! No doubt about it or placebo!
The sound feels more pure!
At around 300 hrs like clarified by mark , the effect becomes very obvious!
I will probably go one for amp and one for streamer .
Bravo!
Like my Vanguard Scout's, the Ranger is a small speaker with big, beefy sound. Fits well in my small room. Love these Vera Fi Audio products. Thanks again!
Not just a tweak, but an incredible upgrade. Just throw that boutique fuse away.
I have a complete Spectral-system (SDR-4000, DMC-30SV, DMA-200-S2), in combination with a heavily modified Klyne phono stage. Over the past 10 years, I have invested a lot of money in improving the system, particularly in the cabling (MIT Oracle) and power supply. But no tuning measure - really none - brought about such an improvement in sound quality as the use of -currently - two SDFBs in combination with the Graphene sluggos.
The Graphene-Suggos are the only right choice - even with Spectral: The copper Sluggos sound too warm, upfront and lack resolution (at least for my taste); the Super Sluggo doesn't come close to the Graphe Sluggo in terms of naturalness.
My system has never sounded as good as it does now. To improve it further, I would have to spend at least 10 times the price of the SDFBs. Thank you, Mark, you are so great!
