Hi Fi Tuning Supreme fuse-Burn In?
kosst_amojan Sure! I’ve got proof most people think this stuff is a laughable joke!Great! Please show us the proof. It might be interesting. |
I’m looking forward to further evidence, of amps being damaged by, "high-end" fuses. Like I said, the Internet SHOULD be replete with the tales. One would think the Fuse Police, ought to have an easy time digging them up. Perhaps, AT LEAST ONE informed amp manufacturer(aside from our resident fuse cop), that warns against them in their owner manuals? No caveat emptor, in ANY reviews or magazine articles? Again, why would a correctly valued fuse(in voltage, amperage and time), as required by amp’s owner’s manual, be a danger to it’s DC circuitry? Only in the vacuous gourd, of one with no concept of the scientific method, would conducting one’s own experiments(successfully) be considered, "I did a dumb thing and it worked". Until the middle 20th Century the best, known science/Physics couldn’t explain how a Bumblebee stays aloft. I guess no scientific nay-sayers, told the Bumblebee, those tiny wings couldn’t generate enough lift, to drag it’s fat butt into the air(you’re stupid to try)! Then someone introduced Fluid Dynamics to the world. "OH, OK Bumblebee(now you can fly)!" https://www.livescience.com/33075-how-bees-fly.html |
@odman99999, Roger Modjeski has explained numerous times (both on his AudioCircle Music Reference Forum a few years back---which is still available to read, and on a recent thread that has unfortunately been deleted, perhaps by Roger himself. He may have also discussed the subject in his current thread asking for technical questions) why the original Hi-Fi Tuning Fuse (and ONLY that fuse, as that is the only "High End" fuse Roger has looked into) is designed and built in such a way as to not be able to protect an amplifier in the event of a tube failure in a DC circuit. Is has nothing to do with voltage or amperage, but rather the tube’s, as I said, design and construction, which Roger fully explains in his posts on the subject. I myself need to go back and reread what Roger has said, but he provides info on how a fuse, any fuse, reacts internally when it "blows". That info should help people better understand why fuses are created the way they are, what the differences are between various designs, and why he warns against using the above fuse in specific applications. I really don’t see why Roger’s warning has been met by some with such hostility and defensiveness. That warning is well-founded, as a reading of it will make very clear. The owner of the Music Reference RM-9 amp that came back to Roger for repairs did nothing wrong; he installed the correctly-rated Hi-Fi Tuning Fuses (9 iirc) in the amp, and when it was damaged sent it back to Roger for repair. Why he has been called incompetent is a mystery, part of the defensiveness and hostility I mentioned above. Roger fully looked into what had happened inside the amp, and has reported on what he discovered. He did some research on the fuse, and reports on what he learned about it. Is that a problem for you? If so, you are free to ignore Roger’s well-founded warning. Roger is also not incompetent ;-) . |

@bdp24 - You seem to have difficulty in the area of comprehension. I don’t have a problem, at all. Nor- did I ever call Roger, "incompetent", anywhere in my posts. I have a differing OPINION, borne out by my own(years long/multiple components) testing. The customer that blew up his amp, may(or- may not) be another story. You can accept his word, if you choose(matters not, to me)! Try reading my prior posts(start with 12-01 at 10:20 am) VERY SLOWLY, and when you can provide FURTHER EVIDENCE, of these fuses(when correctly selected as specified by the manufacturer) being a risk in ANY amplifier(tube OR SS), as I’ve CLEARLY and REPEATEDLY ASKED, get back to me. |
