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. :)

That’s the definition of trolling. Now you’re starting to catch on.
Better late than never Geoff.
Although....is it true that trolling can take on many forms? For example, what is the difference between trolling and instigating...or agitating.....or, is that pseudo-trolling? I thought I would reach out to an expert to help me understand.
@keithahughes,

Yes, it was Geoff who informed us. Knowing that, I used it to support my belief of a "base of evidence". 

And what an affliction Soupy was. Black Fang, White Tooth, and that squirrel puppet at the window, along with the unusual walk ins, especially when they had that nude lady dancing for him off camera, which he was unprepared for.

When he saw the naked lady, he glanced over at the monitor and saw the same feed and thought his career was over. It turned out that what the world saw was a different feed from the control room.

All the best,
Nonoise

I love Soupy Sales (Pooky was a lion and Hippy was a hippo-no squirrels). I have a nice collection of his 60’ shows and the complete 77-78’ shows. My wife prefers when we watch Buster Keaton, Harold Lloyd and Charley Chase. I add Laurel & Hardy and Charley Chaplin to the mix with a wide assortment of other silent comedians and clowns.

Back to the topic, thank you Geoff for your clear stated comments concerning using our five senses. Primitive man did not have any scientific instruments to determine outcomes. He/she used their senses to make decisions.

Gdal-I was not offered the stupid blind test; however, I can afford it but why would I bother since I already know how superior the SR blue and circuit breakers are to cheap fuses. The same with fuse directionality. It’s so obvious. Unless you cannot hear the difference in polarity in high end gear using polarized A/C cords (or on some recordings/speaker wiring mixup) then you won’t be able to determine fuse directionality either. It’s either in or out of phase.
