The guru on fuses:


For two years, I have asked why and how fuses could possibly matter. All I got was arguments of faith, pro or con. I needed a real audio guru who actually knows. Here is a link from John Curl’s discussion on Parasound’s website. He engineered and designed some some great equipment, including some Mark Levinson gear, The Grateful Dead’s 30 plus McIntosh amp powered Wall of Sound, and his admittedly, somewhat price compromised Parasound designs. He discusses the electrical properties of standard fuses, showing how they are compromised. The entire article is quite enlightening, but to skip to the fuse section, go to the bottom half of page 6. https://www.parasound.com/pdfs/JCinterview.pdf

Fuses feed into 10s or more feet of wire in a transformer and high inductance. Conveniently forgotten.

All this wire after the fuse is just another variation on the old, all those miles of wire before it gets to your outlet BS: another red herring.

We all know you can’t hear the difference so why oh why do you need to waste our time with your insulting negativity.
To counter the snake oil, voodoo, BS told here by shilling fusers.

Seeing it's the Chinese New Year of the Ox, everything needs the real Yang told to any BS’ing Ying.
I did the fuse and magnet demo for my they don't care daughters and 2 grandsons.
They couldnt understand why others denied hearing any difference when it was so huge to the 4 of them. The 9 year old grandson described those that say they couldn't hear a difference like that of him trying speak to his 91 yr.old  grandmother standing at her face and speaking very loudly..nearly deaf.

The difference was so great that .....


I like this new audiophile joke. Good twist on not using the wife for once. That was getting tired.
