We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses


LOL, I'll bet I gotcha on that Title! ;)  BTW, I put this thread under "Tech Talk" category as it involves the system physically, not tangentially. 

More seriously, two question survey:

1. Do you think designer fuses are A) a Gift to audiophiles, or B) Snake Oil 

2. Have you ever tried them?  Yes or No

In the tradition of such questions on Agon, I'll weigh in as we go along... 
Feel free to discuss and rant all you wish, but I would like to see clear answers to the questions. :)

Apologies, geoffkait; I thought that the Quantum Chip was a Machina Dynamica product. I did a bit of searching and see it is not. Thank you for pointing that out.

My goal is to curate the thread to prevent as many tangential discussions as possible. I have no problem with such things being discussed, but imo if they are discussed here it becomes a quagmire to the primary objective of seeing the results of the survey and discussion pertaining solely to the efficacy of fuses. 
That’s OK, douglas_schroeder, I understand. 😬 My only intention is to add content to the thread.
@douglas_schroeder - To answer your direct question, I am a fuse skeptic and I only use a digital source.

Thanks for including the reference to your blind testing review.  Very interesting.  There seems to be lots of confounding of variables in your test method.  The take away of a audible difference between system A and system B is supported by your write up.  I didn't follow the conclusions of differences in the components that make up the systems.    

I can ask specific questions on that review site so as not to redirect your thread.
@geoffkait Thank you for clarifying

By the way, as you just celebrated the 50th anniversary of your presentation, you are WAAAYYYY older than I realized...
