How it works! From a common man.

How a boutique fuses changes the sound in a piece of equipment, and how (at least) one became directional.

How they made it directional. Yes SOME, very few, are made that way. I'll Explain what I found.
  
Why it works or NOT. This is NOT a fuse shoot out.  This is a, "WHY it works", Not "it just does", session. LOL

Everyone is welcome to help me figure out why it works, BUT why it doesn't, with a reason, is VERY welcome.

No name callin'.  Don't call folks liars, just state your personal learning extravaganza, HOW, and WHY.

We'll figure out WHY, and HOW it effects something.. Cause and Effect. NO PSYCHOBABBLE.

Big words hurt my head, keep it simple for us common folks if you would please.

I promise to be on my best behavior, maybe. :-)

"Can you see electricity?"

When solar power reached the top of the Himalayas, they decided to retire the "What is the sound of one hand clapping?" question.

Empty handed yet holding a hoe.
Walking yet riding a water buffalo.
Merrily clapping one hand as we go....

The zinc compound in Rislone is a very very poor conductor.  There is no zinc oxide in Rislone.

WAY off topic but, a question, if you don’t mind.

Reel to Reel, you ever tinker with the medium?

You got any pointers, you could share, with the recording side and the playback side. Types of tape that are better, NOW, if you know.

RTR better? I don’t care, one way or the other, I just want to make it better. Mine is just coming out of storage after 20 years... I need the magic back... Tinker fest, time...

The RTR tube stage is being modded from the TT stage that’s in the que for build right now... Decware. I like the idea! Not to tecky..

I have a head out tap on one unit.. Otani MX50/50 BII, your thoughts on that type of playback system?

You got any STUFF to share? I know you do.. NOW SHARE...:-)

I'm running 2 track, BUT thinkin' of a 3rd head, for recording and playback... You up to date on that little trick, I'm NOT.....I just heard about it from some hip hop head, RAPPIN, BASS head kid..  LOL He's into messing with the mixxin'
