Fuses fuses fuses

Ok, this is about fuses

1- a standard Bussman fuse is UL approved. Are any "high end" fuses UL approved?

2- do any component manufacturers supply their gear with any of the usual suspects of high end fuses as opposed to a standard Bussman?

3- let's say fuses do make a difference. Given incoming power is AC, why could fuses be directional? 

Not meaning to light any fires here- 

thanks in advance

Can you give some other technical forums you visit so we can see what they think of you there also?

Cheers George

Don't worry Geoff, all I had to do was Google "Geoff Kait audio" and wow, you really get a new one ripped on many forums, even Stereophile which is usually a fairly calm forum.

Geoffkait,
Amen. 🙏

Not to worry, nonose. If you pray real hard maybe something will get through by osmosis.

They did send me in for treatment.  I was prescribed Music Therapy.    
Vicious circle.
