We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses

TBH I hate the term designer fuses or boutique fuses and would never refer to them as such
Aftermarket fuses is my term of choice.

I honestly cannot say as I have tested differing brands of said fuses so really cannot comment, maybe one day when I am really bored I may try one of these honey filled confectionary ones, sorry mean AM Beeswax just to see.

The only snake oil factor I have ever seen or heard about comes from the abject naysayers.......

Op
Would that information be that basically the human race are collectively a bunch of aholes?

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

answer: c) somewhere in the middle. Expensive to be called a gift. Also it is not even of any value to talk in general about sound quality of "designer" fuses. That means just appearing fancy and being expensive. I do think some fuses work better than others and there are many that work extremely well that are not "designer". There is a definite snake oil factor. There are rational ways to choose a fuse like any other electrical component. You can choose just because you believe nothing more.

2. Have you ever tried them? Yes or No

Yes.

Well, they can’t be much of a gift if you can’t hear them. It’s much better in cases like that to use an inexpensive Littlefuse or Busman fuse and be dine with it. Audio Nervosa is not good for anyone. How do you know if some fuses work better than others if you can’t hear them? 

Gk


I bet I  know what you hear much better than you know what I hear.

You're reading comprehension is grade school level.  Is your hearing totally  shot too?   Playing that Walkman too loud?
