NEW PROTOTYPE FUSES COMING >>>

I’ve been asked to evaluate/beta test some new fuses that will be coming out soon. I should have them as soon as this coming Saturday.

At this point:

1. I cannot reveal the name of the manufacturer of the fuses.
2. I do not know what the retail price will be.
3. I do not know what the name of the fuse will be.

For comparison purposes, I have a full complement of SR Orange fuses that can be used throughout the system. I have one QSA Yellow fuse now being used in my ARC-PH8 phono stage, with another one to arrive soon to be used in my ARC REF-75se.

I’ll be comparing the SR Orange fuses, and the QSA fuses, with the new prototype fuses. I’ll also be using the ears of three of my well-seasoned audiophile friends, as well as my own to make the evaluations. These guys are all truth-tellers that I have full confidence in.

According to the manufacturer, these new fuses are real game-changers, so stay tuned.

@tsushima1 : So what you were saying is BS. You are actually stating that fuses that do not meet BS1363 invalidate an insurance claim, if the appliance were fitted therewith.

How do you know how many standard and so called audiophile fuses meet or exceed these specifications? There is so much Chinese junk in the supply chain that if you actually tested them against spec I reckon the audiophile ones might fare pretty well.

Sorry, forgot to ask _ why does any so called audiophile fuse automatically fail to achieve BS1362?

"Applies in the USA, too."

Not true, a fire is covered regardless of cause (except arson
by the building owner). If the offending fuse was installed by
a third party, the insurance company might have legal recourse
to recover their payout.

Under your logic, if you left the bacon
on the stove unattended and it started a kitchen fire there
would be no coverage. Wrong!
