McIntosh fuse changeout to make better sound

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

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..

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,

If the OP is "for real", (low post count and has not bothered to post again}
Suggest he do this instead of wasting $150+ for a 50cent fuse

'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.'


What's in an unverified forum claim when you can boast and list stock pictures of the "system" you claim to own and pretend? I have often wondered how many of these 200G + systems claimed to be owned around here really exist and how many are bragging rights fiction from those who want you to be impressed with their fibs. There are some basics in audio and the veracity of some claims are easily measured and repeatable and will withstand double blind tests. Then there are the space ship people with heretofore unheard of technologies and discernment who somehow manage to evade the double blind test thingamajigger.
