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

I’m convinced that the naysayers have never experienced what is possible with their systems.
That may be partially true, but I suspect many of the naysayer measurementalists don’t even own systems. They’re just here to argue and disrupt and by that measure they are doing a great job.
Hey OP, @ucdmac122005,
As yourself, does this sound like the opinion of someone you can trust to be unbiased, take some care in their listening tests?  Pretty much a given whoever wrote this does not have a firm grasp of the physics of electricity, how electronics work, etc.  They have to make a call to some hereto unknown facet of theoretical physics, of which they have no evidence or proof. Take that for what it is.

As the 'Flat Earth Church of Pushing Electrons Through Metals' continues it's fevered program, to deliver the music lover from the demonic influences of their own mental faculties and senses (HOLLOW-HEADED-LUJAH, AMEN): the intrepid listen on and enjoy the rewards of their own experimentation.

And then there are those that DO, I’m in your camp. I tried it, on my equipment with someone else’s fuses they gave to me.

3 different types, all with different results, ALL the same brand. SR

If you haven’t tried it, you got no say in the game.
If you don’t own the equipment you got no say in the game.

Show me the science, has nothing to do with what someone ELSE hears.. It’s a broken record. The same FEW keep sneaking in their, digs about "Show me the science", when the OP wants to know if it might change his system and SOUND better... NOT where is the science.  HOW does it sound.. Keep answering questions that aren't being asked..

Don’t get talked out of a GOOD thing by someone who hasn’t tried it, probably can’t hear the difference, or has the equipment or environment conducive to giving the product a fair comparison.

Yea they sound different, I own and have access to a LOT of Mac gear, the fuse change is for the better, never worse 4 out 5 of the times..
Maybe, 45-50 pieces..(Between 5 guys)

I’m going to be going through a pair of MC60, and doing a case change, we’ll see if a new PC, fuse holder, and fuse, make a difference.. I bet they do... 60 + years old...STUFF, literally used lamp cord. :-) Sounded quite good..

Regards

Good to see this fuse thread got moved down the ladder were it belongs 


Just change the fuse if old for a quality brand EE industry standard 50c fuse, as fuses (even the snake oil ones) do age after many turn on cycle surges.

Quick blow fuses and slow blow fuses aging left to right.

Sad to see that a self appointed liar who says Admin is watching those who use and advocates aftermarket fuses brags, again, about getting threads moved around as if that is what he thinks is winning, something.

This site is devoted to audiophiles and the sales of audio equipment and associated gear, with fuses, being a large part of that. Those fuses are made by the same makers of cables, power conditioners, etc. and again, account for a large share of sales here, which Admin is totally behind. 

I wonder if Admin is aware of what he's doing, discrediting one of the geese that lays a lot of golden eggs here, which is part of their revenue stream. Or, have they already figured him out and after doing the math, found out he is really of no consequence and just let him blather on?

All the best,
