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?

Uh, problem is its not his experience,. Its  just  the old ivory tower academic type thing in action.

Look who’s talking!

Atmasphere actually designs and makes highly regarded amplifiers using fuses.

What is your experience exactly that puts you in a position to question his?

Theoretical physics?

That’s fine but the problem is its well, just all theory.   You know, just the old ivory tower academic type thing in action.

You do get points for Chutzpah though.

I read the whole thing in one sitting. 
...This means I failed the test.

I am starting a web site with the sole intention of fleecing gullible people into sending me their money to pay for magic rocks. Seriously, I will be a genius and a thief all at the same time. Actually, wait... only a thief.

But wait, isn't thief genius?

No- its the willingness to acknowledge that people hear something (the 'ivory tower' type would have written it off as expectation bias or swamp gas), and then find out why.

Ah, so you've heard the difference in fuse contacts? Maybe you mean someone you know.  ;-)
