To Fuse or Not to Fuse... That is the question!


Ok.. I think I understand that no fuse is better than a cheap fuse. And a good fuse is better than a cheap fuse. But is no fuse better than the best fuse?

One person on Audiogon said that he achieved better sound by using a Blue fuse over no fuse. I guess my question is... Do these new, high dollar fuses just allow the current to flow better with solid protection or do they actually due to quantum physics or something, actually improve upon the signal by eliminating errant bad electrons and thereby actually improving the music over no fuse at all?

I gots to know!

no fuse I will not discuss this issue any longer.

I'm with you Al, it's also stupidity of the highest order to bypass mains fuses, and to play around with them to see which direction sounds better is ludicrous, and then to tell the "gullible" to do it is down right dangerous.

This thread has been reported to admin, to be moved to "Misc Audio" and with an Audigon disclaimer, should someone should get hurt doing this ****, because of the stupidity of others telling them it ok to do so.

Another troll who refuses to discuss the issue any longer...discusses the subject. Oh, and thanks a bunch for all the valuable insights, Georgie! 🤡

jburidan. Nice comment! First off, I have a whole house surge protector, secondly, I have all stuff plugged into a second surge protector. 

The question here isn't should I hardwire everything, the question is " if one hardwires components does it improve the quality of the sound over a boutique fuse??? Only two people have responded the question. 

George, while I appreciate your concern for me and others, Running to Daddy? This is less about safety and more about your refusal to even consider that the changing of fuses could possibly alter the sound. But, have Never tried any of these things. So, for the record, I wasn't seeking your opinion, nor the other nay-sayers. I was asking people who had experimented with direct wiring the fuse. 
You’ve now been told here by a couple of members who have more Electronic Engineering knowledge in their little pinkie than all of you "mains fusers" have collectively.

And what your doing and telling the "gullible" to do, is down right dangerous, and liable.
