Is there a solid fuse-like item that I can use in place of a fuse, to bypass it?

UL certification is not legally required in America. 

There may be commercial considerations, and perhaps some codes may require it, though.

I understand that Underwriters Laboratories is a non-profit organisation dedicated to testing the safety of electrical products.

do we have to ascribe some cakyol approved physical explanation for the propulsion system used by the mysterious flying objects detected by USAF combat aircraft before they are deemed real ?

or would he just refer all the pilots to an opthamologist?

Isn’t that analogy just a deliberate oversimplification of the quantum nano metaphysics involved in demonstrating the many and varied characteristics of audio fuses as are so often conveyed in colorful language here on AudioGon?

not on yer nellie noskie

not even a nice try

failed to address my issue at all and instead deflect to unrelated conceptual terms of ridicule

besides I'm not even a quantum metaphysics 21st century boy....

FFS guys, will this schiit never end???

cuckyol and his ilk, do you have nothing better to do. We all get it, you can't hear properly or won't even try. Great, just move on. It appears your system, if you have one, sounds so poorly that you need to entertain your self by harassing other members. Get a life.

  And if I grab the speaker cable like a Pentecostal preacher grabs a snake, it is not pulsating mechanically.

Oh really? How do you know that. Provide proof that that is happening. What makes you think that you can actually feel the tiny vibrations created in cables transmitting power. Your statement is illogical, irrational and irrelevant.

@nonoise and theaudiotweak, this is very frustrating I know but perhaps if we don't directly engage these ... these ... people they might move on, but don't hold your breath.

@OP, fuses do make a difference and I have put this challenge out before. A simple and free experiment is to just change the fuse direction of one of your components and listen for a change in sound. This is easily heard in my system. If you hear no change, great, you are now free from the dreaded 'snake oil' and can save lots of money. 

I have now hard wired a heavy jumper across the fuse in my power amp, why?,  well because it sounds even better than a pure Cu.rod as a jumper.                                    

Will the thread police avoid having a conniption. Understand this is my house and my equipment and I'll do as I like. I live in a stone cottage with walls 2 ft. thick and so many leaks in the roof it will never burn down 😎 and I don't need to worry about insurance, I don't have any.
