Dave_b, if you don't mind, please comment on time required for burn in and where in your equipment chain the fuse went (CD, amp, etc).
fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones
My Rogue Cronus recently blew a slow blow fuse. I was surfing to find a replacement. The stock fuse is a typical metal end cap, glass and "wire" fuse. The audio emporiums only seemed to offer these $39 German gold plated end wunderkinds. I finally found "normal" fuses from a guitar amp site. Has anyone tried the uber fuses and found the sound better? Hard to understand how it could be. Thanks for any thoughts.

Pubul57, I don't know about a $10.00 fuse, but for a it more than the regular glass ones you can go ceramic. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Fuses.jpg Image does not necessarily relate to audio, just a way to show what the two types look like. |
Pubul57 I will let the secret out, however its 2 dollars over your price range... but figured you might be able to scrape it together :-) see link, they are the bottom left product. http://www.acmeaudiolabs.com/products.htm Problem is I did not know of them myself till well after the others were in my system back in the day I would not hesitate to say they are probably worth a shot due to the overall logic still used in them for the more reasonable price. |
