HiFi audio Fuse on a CD Transport

No one's asking you to give up your prejudices, stereo5. just keep an open mind (which seems to be asking a lot) Anyone remember Lloyd Walker (RIP) and his beautiful, 6 figure turntables? Long before fuses became the reason to go off on members he advocated for use of better fuses in his motor drives simply because they made it more accurate than the bog standard ones that the cheapies use.

One needn't pay what the fools here decry. This has been gone over ad nauseam and all you need to pony up is about $20 for a better fuse. It isn't gong to break the bank but then, what would the fuse nannies have to whine about?

@nonoise,  it is not a prejudice, I actually bought two from Chris at VH Audio a couple years back.  It did nothing for my system or me.   So, I do not believe in them.  If you have heard benefits than I am happy for you but in my case, it did nothing. 

@stereo5 , Good for you....at least you tried some for yourself. It's just the nastiness in your reply over something so small as a fuse.

All the best,

Transport doesn’t use enough power to make it worthwhile.

As for fuse Koolaid, I'm not sure I drank it.  I think the fuse is a horrible thing to put in your power circuit.  My amp has the fuse replaced by a copper bar.  makes a huge difference.  The fuse is there to protect the power transformer.  $200.  I can afford a new one if it blows.  We spend tremendous ammounts to time and money on power supplies, power regenerators, $1000 cables, and then we strain the electrons through a filament the size of a human hair.

So a fancy audiophile fuse should be somewhere between the tiny filiment and my copper bar.  So it should be an improvement.

Have you seen the Jay's Audio CDT3 MK3? 

This is the AC power supply section, on the underside,
