Fuses that matter.

I have tried six different fuses, including some that were claimed to not be directional. I have long used the IsoClean fuses as the best I have heard. No longer! I just got two 10 amp slow-blows WiFi Tuning Supreme fuses that really cost too much but do make a major difference in my sound. I still don't understand how a fuse or its direction can alter sound reproduction for the better, but they do and the Supreme is indeed! I hear more detail in the recordings giving me a more holographic image. I also hear more of the top and bottom ends. If only you could buy them for a couple of bucks each.

>>..if there is such a thing as a better fuse???
The same reason there is a different kind of power cord, the same reason there is a different kind of speaker.

One reason why aftermarket fuses usually sound better than stock fuses is simply because they are inserted in the proper direction, especially if the stock fuse was inserted backwards. Now, knowing that wire in the fuse is directional should be a tip-off that all wire is directional, no? Can you imagine what the sound could be like if all speakers and electronics and transformers and capacitors, etc. were fabricated with this directionality in mind? Hel-loo!

Hi Geoffkait, Do you really believe that fuses would be directional?, I will need four of the SR Reds to go into my krell 700cx, the reply from krell when I asked them about these fuses being directional,quote, you read to much into this, it does not matter which way the fuses go in your amp, end quote, However, I would like to know how I can decide which way the fuses set inside my amplifier to sound best?, It is my opinion that the manufacturer does not know everything concerning fuses after that reply to me, are do you think that they are correct concerning their product?
