HiFi tuning fuses, some benefits help

Laces - how did you clean up your power at the panel?
thanks.

One approach to panel noise and A/C noise in general is to look at Alan Maher"s CBI filters. They attach to the main incoming wires to the breaker box and to the ground wire. They are quite effective at improving the A/C that goes to the in wall duplex outlets. take a look at Alanmaherdesigns.com
Good listening.

What I meant by cleaning up the power from the panel is that the single best thing to do is use a dedicated line to your gear using a 20 or 30 amp breaker and 10 guage wiring.
Everything after that is icing on the cake.
I am intrigued with the reference to the alanmaher product and will investigate.
I've spent years running around in circles flitting from one component to the next looking for sonic nirvana.
I have let go of some fine gear that I never really heard how good it was because I never ventured into cleaning up the power to the gear.
My most recent and pleasant experience has been the addition of a Python CX power cord to my shunyata snakepit.
It has upped the pleasure factor, my Audio Aero has never sounded this good with any other power cord that I had at hand.

As far as audiophile fuses go, I have only tried the Hifi-tuning gold ends version. They made a very substantial improvement in both my tube monoblocks and my tube preamp. However, in my system and IMHO, these fuses take a while to fully flesh out. The first couple of hours they sounded very sparkly and nice. The next three days it sounded like a blanket was placed over my speakers. At this point, I almost took them out, but I hung in there and on day four, the blanket was removed and the sound continued to improve thereafter for up to 300 hours. I know. Call me anal. (o: Here is the best price I have found on these fuses:

Here is a link to some lab tests comparing some popular fuses:

A few weeks ago I installed the silver HIFI Tuning fuses in my Theta Casablanca II, Theta Compli, and Theta Intrepid. It just seemed like the logical thing to do.

In so many words, my system immediately sounded more refined, and over the past few weeks the sound has evolved to be sweeter with tighter bass. I did all three pieces of equipment at once so I say which piece benefited the most.

Theta was kind enough to provide me with a full list of fuse sizes and values for all their equipment. If interested, I’d be happy to share that information with other Theta owners.
