Synergistic Research Orange Fuse


I have purchased this fuse for my line stage and power amp with great results.  I would like to purchase another for my integrated Tube amp, however, this amp calls for 15A and SR only has a 16A fuse.  Will this cause damage to my tube amp if I replace the fuse with a higher rated fuse?  Thanks for any help.

Can't tell the serious responses from the ones of the jokers.  Could someone please give me a straight forward reply as I don't want to damage my equipment.  I've tried the orange fuses and noticed a difference.  I liked it ....so snake oil comments are not necessary.  Thanks for your consideration.
I use a higher rated Orange fuse in my tube amp with zero issues. You shouldn’t have any problem.
dhart86- tommylion is saying the same as me and we both are correct.
When my first Orange Fuse burned it was in a new Herron VTPH2A phono stage. So I called Keith Herron. Highly recommended, one of the best in the business. Told me way more than I ever imagined there was to know about these things. Plus being an x-ray tech I x-rayed and so know how these things look inside. That's how I know fast and slo blow are the same.

Anyway, Keith never blew a single fuse not even in testing nor any customer before me. Mine blew the instant the thing was turned on after being off a long time. As with most components the highest amperage draw is right at turn-on when the power supply caps are charging from being empty. That is max current draw. Yes even for high power amps. Right at turn-on.

Next thing he said, you didn't hear this from me, but if you want to use a higher value fuse its all right with me. Won't void the warranty. Won't do a thing. Because fuses do not work the way the so many around here think. But that is another one for another day.

Straight forward: Buy the higher value. Seriously.
