Please ricey, when you get your POC fuse and try it out, please come back and let us all know just how crappy it was. How you feel about getting duped into believing a bunch of technical stuff that turned out to be stories. And then later when you try a Synergistic Orange Fuse with the money back guarantee how shocked you are to find out it really is worth every penny. Then with that experience behind you let us all know which one you now consider "reasonable" the one that cost time and money and did nothing, or the one that actually did what you wanted.

ricey Just re-new your fuse with the same amperage if it’s old and has seen many turn on cycles, with a quality one like Bussman or Littlefuse and clean the cradle fuse contacts and maybe squeeze them in a little for a tight fit. And definitely don’t be sucked into any $$$ boutique hifi fuses 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 aging and slow blow fuses aging left to right. https://ibb.co/0ZtRv4J https://ibb.co/mbzs3RK Cheers George |
@ricey I tried 2 HIFI Tuning classic gold fuses in my ARC ph3 phono and ls15 pre. I have noticed a huge change in sound the bass is fuller and deeper with more impact, mids are smother and fuller with great imaging and the highs are smooth and well extended with much better detail. My soundstage is wider and deeper with better placement of instruments. I got mine off of ebay from
Parts_ConneXion_Store
for a great price. Just wish they made a dual element fuse to place in my amp. |
@georgehifi Thanks for posting. Those images are eye opening. Any idea how many cycles passed between images? No, but if you watch a fuse very closely on a poweramp when you turn it on from cold, you’ll see the fuse element inside bend and return slightly, with the turn on current surge Apparently it came from a vintage juke box technician Cheers George |
