Is $2,844 too much to pay for a fuse?

Why would anyone put boutique fuses in an inexpensive Yamaha receiver?  Send the money to me instead. I will make better use of it. 

 It is Nuts though if your rich it is still nuts.

"Just how many here went to the link I provided and listened to what the engineers at Yamaha found?"

Yup here

• He didn’t say one fuse sounded better but that it sounded "different" in their Aventage line of AV receivers
• He didn’t say anything about $100 or $3,000 fuses sounding better than $2 fuses
• He basically said they were trying different fuses so they would have multiple sources for production, so they were probably all $2 fuses

Not sure that I learned anything except that some people believe different fuses can change the sound of a Yamaha AV receiver based on what could arguably be called a blind listening test.

And that would include the engineers at Yamaha.

You fuse; then you accuse other audiophile crews.
You lose screws musing looking for clues.
Pay your dues.
Your views? Some refuse. 
These overused fuse views give me the blues.
Confusion ensues.
Time for brews. You choose. 

Absolutely it is to much.

This thread is absurd
