Isoclean Fuses

I have a Isoclean fuse installed in my Ayre amp sometime back but I did not detect any difference though. Must be just me but I find using contact enhancer like Walker's SST on the fuse brings a bigger improvement, IMO.

I installed 5 of them in my old McCormack DNA-2 Rev. A. 1 external and 4 internal.

The 4 internals actually made for a very decent improvement eliminating a bit of harshness, adding a slightly fuller/richer sound, and adding a bit more detail on the top end.

In the scheme of things the $125 for the 5 fuses were well worth the upgrade. Of course compared to a $0.10 fuse, they are way overpriced.

The IsoClean fuses are directional, so be certain to try reversing their direction if you don't notice improvements.

In my experience, like other basic electronics, they took about 40 hours to burn-in.

-IMO

Stehno,
Aren't the internal fuses fast-blow and the external slo-blow? Just wondering if the $25 fuses came in fast blow. I've got a DNA225 and was considering the same fuse change out.

They are only available in slow-blow.

I would first just try the Walker's SST on existing fuses.
