Fuses that matter.

Goldeneraguy, it amazes me also. I really don't understand what drives some people. Having been for a year a EE major, I can partially understand. I once asked in class, when we were going to study tube circuits. In a mild rage, the professor uttered that tubes were done and thus don't merit any discussion. I decided that physics was more scientific and switched there.

"I really don't understand what drives some people."

I can only speak for myself. In my case, in a thread like this, what drives me is to help get all the facts out on the table so people can make their own educated decisions.

Well said, Mapman. I would add that, IMO, some progress has been made to that end. Facts have been found, experiences have been shared, and experiments have been conducted. For a discussion about a controversial tweak, I would say that this thread is well above average in its substantive content.

As for its non-substantive content, my distinct impression is that the majority of the acrimony has not originated from the Skeptics.

I would agree. Lots of good info here to help people make a decision.......

I may be biased but I would tend to judge the "skeptics" as being more unbiased in their approach than the "believers".

No surprise. I hope they are also right! The skeptics, well, they are .... skeptical, at least to-date.

Personally, I am not convinced yet and do not care enough to do anything more than talk about it at present. I do not doubt though that some differences can be heard with some fuses in some cases. Maybe when the time comes to buy a fuse, spare or otherwise, I will consider some of the fancy fuse options. Dunno. I'll worry about it when the situation justifies it for me. I like how my gear sounds and still have other tweaks next in line to try at some point perhaps before I will ever get to fuses.

Honestly?

One camp has tried it and heard differences while the other camp hasn't and doesn't know one way or the other and you give more credence to the one that hasn't tried it?

Surely, you jest.

All the best,
