Determining current flow to install "audiophile" fuses.

"BTW, when I referred to cable effects essentially all being proportional to length I should make it clear that I was referring to power wiring."

Nice try but there is no such law as you seem to be implying.... That’s a Strawman argument by the way, I.e., a statement of "fact" intended to win the argument.   Perhaps you can commiserate with the defense electronics dude.

Well, the only kind of effect this defense electronics dude can think of that would not be directly proportional to length, in the case of power wiring or cables conducting analog signals, would be antenna effects, that may affect pickup or radiation of RFI/EMI. And even in that case, it would seem expectable that the antenna effects of a mains fuse (if any) would be swamped by the antenna effects of the much longer associated AC wiring. Also, FWIW, this defense electronics dude cannot envision a means by which the antenna effects of a fuse (if any) might be different depending on the direction in which it is inserted.

If its a contest between how many useful things I learn about from Almarg as opposed to geoffkait,  guess who wins?

You guessed it.   Perhaps the most one sided landslide victory in human history.  

But that's just my opinion of course....

Georges is in attack mode.  LOL!!!

mlsstl641 posts04-13-2016 10:27pmI find it ironic the extremes to which admitted subjective audiophiles will go in order to to claim that their perceptions are due to anything but subjectivity. That’s classic -- apparently subjective audiophiles are embarrassed by their subjectivity. Hence the need to concoct exotic harebrained technical explanations in an attempt to justify and explain what they hear. 

I use audiophile fuses and can hear different directions.  I'm NOT embarrassed, SUNSHINE!   What's to embarrassed??    The only explanation I need is trust my sense of hearing.

I can probably speak for most members participating in the Synergistic Red Fuse thread too,  SUNSHINE.

To Atmosphere:

As a long time manufacturer of amplifiers and pre- amplifiers I hope you will share in detail the feedback your customers have conveyed to you concerning which fuses improved the sound and which did not. 

I think this information would be especially useful to the OTL community to which you and I belong. My amp is an Eddie Current Zana Deux - tube based , as are your OTL products. Your providing this information does not constitute a manufacturer's endorsement.
