Replacement Fuse's - What are my options ????

Do to a dumb electrical move I blew a fuse in my amp and thankfully it did just what it was supposed to do. No damage to my amp. What are my replacement options ???? I have heard some audiophile fuse's are out there for $25 a fuse....any comments would be appreciated.

"Hi fi Tuning fuses are Non-Directional."

They must have cracked the Da Vinci Code. :-)

Aggielaw, if you've only replaced the fuse accessible from the back of the amp, then you might consider opening the lid on your amp to see if there are a few fuses on either rail inside your amp.

On my DNA-2 Rev A amp there were 4 internal fuses (2 per rail/channel) and replacing these fuses provided substantial sonic improvements perhaps because they are in the direct signal path.

sirspeedy, I have heard that there is a home theater review comparing the HiFiTuning fuses with the IsoClean fuses that finds the IsoClean clearly better. I am sorry that I cannot recall where I read this, however.
