Determining current flow to install "audiophile" fuses.


There are 4 fuses in my Odyssey Stratos amp. I recently returned some AMR fuses because they rolled off the highs and lows a little too much for me. Mids were excellent though. Anyway, I'm getting ready to try the Hi-Fi Tuning Classic Gold fuses, as they are on clearance now for $10/ea. Are they any good? However, I have read that they are a directional fuse? Can anyone confirm this? If that is the case, does anyone know the current flow for the Odyssey Stratos? Or, does anyone know how figure out current flow by opening up the top and looking at the circuitry?

So there ARE (not shouting, but my 'puter doesn't offer italicization) bulk wire manufacturers (specifically the ones from whom the fuse makers claiming directionality get their wire) who offer direction-orientated wire, and indicate the "flow" direction of the wire on their spools? I don't suppose one such wire maker can be cited?

recall from HiFi Tuning data sheets wire measures differently, albeit slightly, in one direction vs the other.Thus all the fuse manufacturer has to do is to cut the first small section of wire off the spool and measure the voltage drop across the wire, both ways. Voila! And if the fuse manufacturer makes his own wire he can see how the wire comes off the final die. So he just tags the wire to keep track of the direction. It’s not rocket science. I just saved you a phone call to a fuse manufacturer. Besides, we already know all wire is directional.
