McIntosh fuse changeout to make better sound


Have anyone change out the fuse in the back of a McIntosh integrate amp to make it sound better? Does this work or is this a myth? And if it does what kind of fuse? Thx

As all the power that goes into the unit flows through the fuse, why wouldn't it matter to go from a thin piece of tin/lead to something better? 
Anyway my experience has been that every time I've gone from stock to SR or Audio Magic or Hi-fi Tuning fuses the sound has gotten better. And that's whether its tube or solid state equipment.
As far as your question on which one, I've used SR red and blues with good results on my sources and haven't bothered to upgrade. On my tube monoblocks I'm using Audio Magic ultimate premier's and love 'em.
As other's have noted in this threat, just be careful to match the values on the tubes you're replacing. 
Good luck and enjoy!!
And don't forget, wash your hands for 5.5 minutes with Dial soap and wear 70/30 cotton/poly gloves when installing, or all your work will go to waste!
Trust the people who have tried an aftermarket fuse.
They work.

All the best,

AMR sells packs of 3..works out to be 15.00 USD apiece.  I use one in my Fisher X-1000 tube integrated amp. Yes it improved sound, but you should note a bigger soundstage as its main advantage.


I'm constantly amazed by the amount of single digit "fuser" posters that come on and cut loose.
BTW admin have also noticed this, and are watching.
