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

LIKE I SAID THIS BS MUST BE STAMPED OUT AT ALL COST.

Like I said, a fanatic.
So true.
Like I've said many many times.
Just get SR to come on here to these pages to back up your snake oil voodoo BS about these AC mains fuses on what they do for the sound and their directionality difference in sound quality.
I think that's fair, as any audio manufacture would be only too pleased to back their product here if true.

Georgie, since you got your fee fees hurt with my last response, I'll leave out the snark but still need to remind you, again, that I don't advocate for the use of SR fuses. Never had. You know it. You're embarrassing yourself here.

All the best,
Nonoise

Ah, allnoise, your the only one doing that
We all know you are a fuser, that's why the majority ratio of your post are on boutique fuses, and advocate they are somehow directional in an AC mains path.
Like I said get the manufacturers to back up your BS on these snake oil fuses.

The only one shoveling BS is you, Georgie, and it's of the dingo variety.
