I've never bothered to reverse the many Hi-Fi Tuning fuses, scattered about my system, BUT- I don't doubt that some have discerned a difference. The element/burn wire that most of our 250V miniature(AGC/MDL/etc) fuses contain, must be drawn, like any other electrical wire. If the supposed effects of the afore mentioned internal connection impedance/capacitance should cause what some are hearing, I would not be surprised. I learned long ago; even slight improvements to a component's power supply, can yield large sonic benefits. When you get down to the basics of most gain circuits(especially- the output of a power amp); that's what you are listening to(the power supply). Happy listening!
Cable/Fuse Direction Matters?
I've been following several threads and there are several references to this "Phenomenon".
I've just finished some interconnect upgrades and got me wondering whether it happens in cables regardless of connector type
E.g. does it occur more frequently in cables with RCA connectors or equally spread across cables with DIN or XLR?
A similar effect also appears to be true for fuses
So here's my question - is there some dark force out there that seems to alter the laws of physics as we understand them?
OR - is it simply a case that both fuses and interconnects are actually seating better when connected one way as opposed to the other way?
if someone has a logical explanation for this please post it
Thanks
