A few months ago I purchased a used pair of speakers from another Agon member.
To
my surprise all the fuses were Orange fuses. I listened to them and
then to satisfy my curiosity I replaced them with ordinary buss fuses
and could not hear a difference.
I did this test with a bunch of friends and neither I or them could hear a difference. Kind of just says it all doesn't it?
To those non technical thinking of purchasing these $$$ fuses. Just save your $150+ and do this instead.
A fuse:
1: two end caps
2: short piece of fuse wire connecting the two end caps through a glass tube (that’s all she wrote).
To
those "non technical" members that are interested in "maybe" wasting
their money, do not listen to the non-technical, listen to the
technicians of this industry that design the audio products you have and
listen to. AND YOU WON"T SEE THEM ON THREADS LIKE THIS AGREEING WITH
WHAT SAID HERE ABOUT THE SOUND IMPROVMENT DETAILS AND AC FUSE PLACEMENT
DIRECTION, EVER!!!
Just clean and tighten your fuse holder and re-new
your fuse (if old) with a good quality 50cent Bussman, Littlefuse or
similar.As with "many switch-on surges" they do deteriorate, bend,
stretch and get crusty with electrolysis formations on their fusible
wire elements before they give out, as these pics show of a fuse wire
element ageing over time show.
