Gold Fuses: Whats the fuss?

Where have you been hiding? Check the forums. There are plenty of discussions about aftermarket fuses.

precious audio equipment needs jewelry as well: stones, gold -- just like you give it to your date, fiance or wife. not sure of audio equipment, but your date, fiance or wife will definitely sound better.

only ones who fuss are people who claim to have bat hearing....now watch the bats come out of their caves...lol

What do you mean when you say 'Gold' fuses?

Do you mean AMR 'Gold' fuses? These have no gold in them. 'Gold' is just the name like Synergistic Research 'Red' fuses.
