Magnepan owners. Fuses or what

Yeah but I’ve blown a fuse on an older Maggie. I suspect the fuse changing thing gets into the psychoacoustic area and I’m not willing to risk speaker damage for a placebo effect.

A fuse perhaps adds a tiny resistance to the higher currents. None to lower ones. So does every other wire and connection in the path from the amp.

I suspect this is OCD overkill stuff but would love to see someone like Amir measure it and/or some good lossless recorded comparisons.

We could always do just one speaker and with a mono sound source, compare them and then switch speakers because no two Maggies are exactly the same.  

If you have the steel jumpers change them out.  You will be very surprised at the positive change.

I replaced the fuses in my 20.7s with solid copper cylinders.  If there was any difference it wasn't big enough to notice.  If I go back to fuses maybe I will notice a bigger change.  But I don't play music that loud and I've never blown a tweeter so not really sure what I need a fuse for anyhow.  

It's not just the fuses than are sonic-degraders, it's the entire fuse block: it's filled with parts made of ferrous materials (steel). Bypass the entire fuse assemble, and install binding posts of your choice in the stock speaker-connector holes. Cardas posts slide right in.

Thanks, guys, for the advice.  I am likely to try these.  Makes perfect sense.  Non interfered with flow of current.
