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!

If you do use a fuse , on synergistic research, You install going with the lettering Left to Right as well as Hifi tuning they have an arrow.
to know how it will sound best very easy going to the positive legg
for example , looking at the IEC input ,if the ground which is the single terminal of the 3 ,if it is on the bottom then your positive terminal will be on the Right
just the opposite if the ground is upside down, this way you don’t 
have to try it both ways the Positive legg is best. Inside you want to go from a connector or terminal to where the electricity is flowing to down stream at the 1st stage if you will. Hopefully this will save someone time from having to figure it out.

  • Due to ROHS you don't see lead in fuses these days. You may find some still in military. Tin/Zinc alloys are used in time delays fuses primarily and I believe in some very small value fuses.

What effect, if any, do you think the use of graphene in fuses would be? In fact, in any audio applications at all such as cabling, power conditioning, etc.

The use of Graphene where in fuses? This dog has been been to death already. Be careful what you wish for.
