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?

Things labelled "audiophile" seem to most often be called that to get the attention of audiophiles who are likely the only ones to care enough about whatever it is being pitched for better sound.  

If these products are truly so great, especially for the bargain audiophile price of only $100 or so,   Why don't any others care?

Just pondering out loud.

Point of fact is they seem to get the attention of non audiophiles and pseudo audiophiles more often.

Hey, did you hear that Phil Collins is making a record for the first time in a long time?  He's back in the Stu-stu-studio.

It's all a joke to some but I suppose everyone loves a good mystery....

I’m a born in the wool Genesis fan from way back in Peter Gabriel days. Gotta respect Phil Collins. A truly talented artist who has always bucked the odds for success. As long as he’s still kicking I am always interested to hear what he might do next.

Perhaps Phil needs some mo-mo-money?
Artists should go back to analogue. This way they will protect their copyrights better.
Love and support the idea

Chances are good any customers who know you doesn’t wish to irritate you by bringing up fuse directionality. ;-)
This statement is false. Our customers are quite eager to supply feedback and we pay attention to it.
