We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses


LOL, I'll bet I gotcha on that Title! ;)  BTW, I put this thread under "Tech Talk" category as it involves the system physically, not tangentially. 

More seriously, two question survey:

1. Do you think designer fuses are A) a Gift to audiophiles, or B) Snake Oil 

2. Have you ever tried them?  Yes or No

In the tradition of such questions on Agon, I'll weigh in as we go along... 
Feel free to discuss and rant all you wish, but I would like to see clear answers to the questions. :)

I think they are a great idea as to my ears they make a big difference but I feel you have to do the whole system to get the benefits. I use SR blue and they have made quite a difference to my system but I am waiting for the  shock horror of the naysayers so that should be fun. I feel the blues especially have opened up my system and given me more detail and less background noise. So I am all for them.
Whether they make a difference or not or if the difference is worth the asking price or not, the products come across as snake oil by any objective analysis regardless in most cases in that there is usually little information provided by the makers and people who pitch them often pitch them with no reservations and discount any dissenting views as best they can and still get away with it, usually by saying you gotta buy in first to know anything.

So if all that sounds good and appeals to someone, please have at it....
