Ceramic fuses

Vegemite is also good on Salada Biscuits..

Yes but you feel like a cockatoo eating them. Toast is for me.

not sure why, but what you said about different types of metals reacting, seems to make sense.. Dont know why.

Google dissimilar metals with current running through them, especially if in damp salty air environments, should have learnt about this in school science??

Cheers George

Gotta love the fairy tales that Georgie thinks up: makers of fuses taking into consideration that some dolt is going to play their stereo at the salt water’s edge so they devised poorly conductive metals to circumvent said conditions.

All the best,

Gday, Ive decided to go with a ceramic fuse, with nickel plated brass ends. They only cost about $6.75
I will also treat with Deoxit....
Cheers Andrew. 

Gotta love the fairy tales

that "fusers" make up, and have no idea about electronics, or science.

Good quality fuse ricey, just don’t get sucked into the $150+ fuse BS that "fusers" waffle on about here, especially directional ac fuses, just "snake oil".

So George, if one of your customers came in with Cary 805 Es and said upgrade the wiring, replace the coupling and decoupling caps, check and replace parts as needed, you’d tell them, there is no need and they are wasting their money? The wire is fine and whats in there is just as good as what your going to replace it with?

Cary, calls it a sonic UPGRADE. It sounds BETTER.. Have you upgraded amps and heard a difference?
Copper is replaced with Silver wire or clad, caps are replaced, resistors are tighten up, PS HecFred, and filter cap.  Match a good set of valves. 2-3 K, you are gonna turn it away?
BTW, they want SR blue fuses in the units.. LOL Just add it to the bill, kind of customer..

I ask, because that same thinking is the difference between a 100 amp, a 1000.00 amp or a 10,000.00 amp.. Usually better parts.

You seem to be ok if the price is right. What if the price MADE a 100 amp into 1000.00 amp, for the cost of 150.00 worth of resistors and caps?

I think that is the main part I don’t understand with your way of thinking...

If SR fuses were 6.50 would you use them then? Complaining about the cost is one thing, saying they don’t change the sound is a different thing all together.. They change the sound at a cost of 100. each if you buy three (on sale). 300.00.

So is the BS the cost, the quality, the money back guarantee, all of it, part of it. How does that work as a repair person? You don’t do upgrades?
