Just another Orange fuse thread

Most of us here really enjoy listening to music and are here to share and learn anything we can that will help us make the music sound even better. A small but very noisy minority have other priorities. The stories like the people vary but the one thing they all have in common is an inability to listen. They can't hear worth a damn.

Read their posts, you will see. They never compare anything based on how it sounds, unless its to say something meaningless like its better or they like it. Never a word about imaging, sound stage, depth, attack, decay, timbre, tone, or any of the hundreds of things the rest of us use to describe what we're hearing. But they know that's the whole reason we're here, and so they are unbelievably jealous. Jealousy leads to envy and spite and so they joke to relieve the tension in their sorry lives and attack those of us with ears who they see as the reason they have to be so miserable.

Holds up well, I'd say.

George, you should be associated with those other sites that bash cables/fuses/practically any tweak that cost more than $5. Again, you comment about “snake oil fuses” is absurd, it’s your opinion, and a weak 1 at that. I know people with very nice equipment that use 3rd party fuses and they like them. If you don’t like them, keep your nonsense comments for the other naysayer sites

it’s your opinion, and a weak 1 at that

Ah sorry sunshine, ask any Electronic (general/sound/audio) Engineer about AC mains fuses and what a $200 SR fuse can do better than a 50c Bussman, and get them to state it here in person.
And then also ask him about the BS sound differences found in "directional" orientation of said AC mains fuses.

It’s all voodoo snake oil BS punished here in these forums by the manufacturers shills, to take the gullible members with no EE knowledge at all for all they have, as well as getting them to play around with mains that is potentially dangerous for them to be fiddling with..
That's why so many of these fuse thread are shut down. Audiogon aren't stupid they know, and have access to many EE's   

And BTW

The only way a fuse can sound better, if it replaces old crusty one that seen too many switch on surges over time, doesn’t have to be $200 fuse, should be $2 same one but new, and the same result will happen, and switch-on surge ageing will be the same for both $200 fuse or the $2 fuse

Your better off spending $2 on a "new original fuse", and save hundreds.

Cheers George

George is absolutely right. 

The threads get closed because the discussion  tends to turn into personal attacks if posters do not drink the kool aid.
