The secret to a great amplifier...

   "........knowing more about what happens at the atomic level does not change what happens at the macro level."          BUT; new knowledge will, generally, help us understand the WHY (at least: get us closer).      A modicum of Wave-Particle Duality and QED study, can open one's eyes to the possibilities, surrounding what's happening with conductors, dielectrics, and our voltages/signals.          Of course; arguments between theories and concepts will never end.     The only thing that should matter here, is what one hears for themselves, in their own home.      

Far as, "a proper experiment", as I said, "IF you’re interested in improving your system’s presentation, have a shred of confidence in your capacity for perceiving reality and trust your own senses: try a better fuse, FOR YOURSELF."         

and trust your own senses

That is the same argument that people who believe the earth is flat use.

What is amazing is with all the evidence showing how easy it is to fool our senses, that people still insist they are special, and that quoting the internet somehow makes them an expert.


We know without a shred of doubt that visual stimulus can impact our audible perception, and our taste perception even our emotional perception. Why insist this is not true. You can't claim to be a person of science on one hand, then conveniently reject the science that does not agree with what you want to believe (and accuse other people of Dunning Kruger).


First red (or was that black), then black, then blue, then orange, and all age somehow "so much better" than the one before. It begs the question, was your system so awful to start that successive generations of fuse upgrades made a huge difference? Call me skeptical.


I wonder why these fuses blow more often than other fuses?

jaybe665 posts10-09-2019 7:43amI find SR fuses to blow much more easily than a normal fuse with the same rating. After this happening a few times with the Blues I took the advise of Alfred at High End Electronics and bought a slightly higher rating fuse but it too eventually blew. Two pieces of highly regarded equipment this happened with that otherwise have no problems.

"You can't claim to be a person of science on one hand, then conveniently reject the science that does not agree with what you want to believe (and accuse other people of Dunning Kruger)."         As I stated earlier;   "A modicum of Wave-Particle Duality and QED study, can open one's eyes to the POSSIBLITIES, surrounding what's happening with conductors, dielectrics, and our voltages/signals."     None of it (modern Physics) supports AC pushing electrons through a wire.      Of course; that's was what being taught as, "Science" (regarding electricity) by the Engineering Dept, while the Physics Dept was teaching voltage/signal wave propagation, at Case.     That was the Sixties.    QED was still young and related in lectures.        No one that can prove via, "Science" that changing a fuse can't make a audible difference, or: vice versa.        All anyone has, at present, is Electrical THEORY.       Again; theories don't prove anything, but: I choose to put my confidence in the latest (I like to keep up).           I'm not on this forum, to impress or convince anyone, of anything, by winning some kind of educational or semantic, Urinational Olympics.      Only: to encourage those, so disposed as to experiment for themselves and confident in their systems and faculties (their own minds, GASP), to do so.        That the variables are manifold should be obvious, to most anyone.      As should: the propensity of some, to constantly change subjects.       I'm of the opinion: pleasing one's own ears, is ALL that matters.
