Quick fuse question

Hello guys. I have a quick fuse question. I have a ARC D200 amp that uses a MDQ5A fuse.The MDQ is a dual element fuse. I have purchased some Aucharm fuses for my pre and phono stage and they sound great. What would be the replace size for the MDQ5A fuse? I put in a standard 5Afuse and the amp ate it for lunch. Thanks for your time and effort guys.

.@georgehifi Thanks for you unhelpful comments
Your welcome.
Your now officially one of the "fuser gang" junior members, once you have mentioned just how much better an AC mains fuse can sound reversed, then you’ll get promoted to "grand fuser" status🤦‍♂️

George, you should see someone about your PTSD. You're nothing more than a stalker. 

I'll bet that you've added mktracy to your hit list and will pounce on any future posts he makes like you do to others. Maybe Admin should give you a time out.

Anyone, that pushes $$$$ ac mains fuse to the gullible like we have here, are in my sights to keep a balanced technical perspective on this snake oil.

@georgehifi You are a JOKE my man! Hopefully you can get a life and stop with you bashing. Maybe you can find some solitude listening to your Walkman/ Beat Audio headphone system. P.S. I did notice a difference when I reversed the fuse. Have a great life georgehifi.

And there it is (an upgrade to grand fuser), ac mains (alternating current) changes it direction 60 x a second (60hz) think about it?


The gullible need both sides, so they don’t get shafted with spending $$$$ for a 50cent fuse.
