"Weird...sort of like believing that fuses can influence the tone of sound reproduction devices."
I don't think the fuses are influencing the sound. I think they are getting out of the way of the sound. In other words, they allow for lower noise saturation throughout the system. Like everything else that has lowered noise in the system, more of what is on the recording is heard at the speaker end. This may sound weird, but most of the tweaks I've talked about in this forum over the past five years or so have done exactly that. The PPT Gate, mats, TC, etc., all have had their influence by lowering the noise floor. All of the aftermarket fuses I've tried over the years have done the same thing. With these latest fuses, both the QSA Yellow and the new prototypes, the noise is lowered even further.
