So done with audiophile fuses

Several have commented on the "sound improvement" fuses can make.  Regardless of that point, if a manufacture cannot provide product stability in this case of a fuse used at the amperage recommended by the hardware manufacture why use it?    

Good point J.Chip. The problem is none of them are better than the one they replace. They may look cooler but in many instance if not most, they are worse than the ones they replace.

"Will you walk away from a fool and his money" is from the song "Come and Get It," which was written by Paul McCartney.....but, first recorded by the band Badfinger,. It was probably Badfinger's biggest hit, and the song was also produced by Paul (he insisted they do the song exactly the same as his demo).

The Beatles version of the same (released on "Anthology 3") never made it past the demo stage; and, Paul played all of the instruments on that demo.

IMO Badfinger is a criminally overlooked and under appreciated band; so, I thought it was worthwhile to give credit where credit is due.

Wow. This thread may be setting a precedent of sorts with mostly anti fuse trollers all dog piling and back slapping. Here's hoping that they find contentment in this thread and not venture out into the real world lest their sensibilities be shattered.

All the best,

Many, including myself, have questioned the hyperbole and silly claims of the efficacy of Magic (re: expensive) Fuses, and also question the claims of those who condescendingly imply that those who don’t hear the alleged benefits are inferior listeners. Having tested SR fuses against stock fuses myself, with the failure of a couple of the SRs noted (fuse rating issues are common with SRs, not so much with Littelfuse or Buss products), I found that indeed, the SR athletic supporter's claims were nonsense. I carefully recorded my system with my high res recording stuff to compare the SR products with the stock fuses, played the recordings for some friends, and none could hear improvement from the "boutique" fuses. People may feel better using pricey fuses and of course that’s to be expected, but all the proof I need regarding the alleged sonic transformation the things provide is my experience, applied logic (understanding what power supplies actually do being outside of the signal chain), and the fact that virtually no equipment manufacturers seem to care about using "special" fuses in the gear they design. If anybody took up oregonpapa on his offer, I can only assume he’d replace the SR fuses with stock versions for comparison to the SRs he advocates. That certainly would be interesting if not a bit fiddly...would break-in time be allocated? Snacks? A directionality seminar covering each fuse? Casa oregonpapa here we come!
