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. :)

Looks like Almarg sums up the point eloquently
But it was, in the end, an assumption. Most engineers would consider a fuse to be nothing more than a protection device, since that's it's intended purpose. It turns out though, that it has ramifications beyond it's intended purpose, and there are those who've bothered to see for themselves if there's any benefit to changing the fuse for a better one, as  opposed to those who simply refuse to try.

All we're doing here is going in circles.

All the best,

Nonoise, it sounds like an excellent marketing ploy.

Kosst,
I'm way the hell on the other side of this continent. Just do yourself a favor, try a fuse and trust your own ears to see for yourself. You don't need anyone else, unless you don't trust your own hearing. 

All the best,
Nonoise
