High Quality Fuses in Amps

I work in a lab where we have a liq N2 cryo tank. I'll slowly lower the temp of some fuses to -160C and slowly bring them back to RT, and report.

I don't think one week at home freezer will do anything. The theory is that liq N2 low temps will modify the molecular structure and grain of the metal, thus altering conduction through it.

My protocol is 1 day at 4degC, 1 day at -20degC, 3 days at -80degC, 1 week in liq N2, 3 days at -80degC, 1 day at -20degC,1 day at 4degC, then RT and listen.

I will then post listening results and impressions before and after treatment.

Cheers.

Bicycle_man,
How did your test go, with the cryoed fuses?

We Aussies use nails...... No probs.   :)

Your betting a dead horse.$29.00 for aftermarket fuse is very cheap my fuses SR Blue cost $150.00 and are a real bargain so be a sport spend some cash.Enjoy!!!

Fuse threads pop up like weeds, kill/discredit one and another sprouts up.
 I can see why, as the profit margin huge, on some are over 500%, this is enough to bring in the unscrupulous fuse "snake oilers" into our equipment/music passion pastime and ripoff the gullible who don't know better.

And as others have said, ask your question on one of the other fusers threads. So this doesn't turn into a weed.

Cheers George
