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!

Just as soon as I think I've tweaked the system to it's maximum, something else comes along to take it to new heights. I enjoy sharing the information on this site.

Oregonpapa, in all your well meaning literature, I wonder if you have separated more audiophiles from their hard earned than any other individual on this site, they seem to think it was worth it.

Unlike you, I am a papa of an individual in Oregon

How many times have I seen you say this, from stock to black to blue to red to purple now orange, you must have the best sounding system in the world.

That’s a roger roger, straight into SR’s pocket at the speed of light, not only for fuses but anything else RS has, and maybe a little honey back on the side, for yours truly.

BTW: no more SR $150 "Orange fuse" thread that was just blatant s******g.
You can guarantee a new trainee SR s*****r, will start one up in it’s place.
Because there’s now a million Orange fuses to get rid of at rrp $150, cost price 20cent, nice profit if you can get it.

C'mon George.
Unless you actually KNOW for a fact those fuses cost 20c to make that is just an outlandish statement to make.
One that earns you no respect at all.

What do you think, there’s a 15mm long strip of unobtainim in that glass tube, get real.

Ok, ok, lets double it to 50c still dam good in anyone’s books.

I had no idea!!! there’s even one for $225usd!!!! Talk about preying on the gullible
