Should we upgrade high end fuses?

I know about the safety and all, but I picked up a length of 1/4" 101 OFC solid copper rod.
Fuses and their holders are definately weak links in any audio component.
I've been using the slug in my original Hydra since new, for 4 years, with no ill effects what so ever.
Now, don't nobody come jumping in on my butt about how wrong, unsafe or illegal this is,
I already know.
Folks have done this with Maggie speakers and other equipment as well for many years.
Anytime I do an interconnect or speaker cable change or move, system gets shut down and un-plugged from the wall to settle and cool.
Use at your own risk, if in any doubt, replace fuses with equal value and forget about bypassing entirely.

And those Acme fuse holders are just as important as the high end fuses.

Rx I have often thought of solid copper but was always afraid of hurting my family. The house the hi-fi that all can be conjured up once again. One friend I know replaces the fuses with circuit breakers saying they sound much better, you need more space inside each component and the know how to do the swap. Tom

The Acme fuse holder does have a thin silver plate but the base metal is not copper or bronze. I have already done research and can find no high quality fuse holder. Simply replacing the fuse without addressing the fuse holder only gives you partial results. Oh how nice my system sounds with the fuses and fuse holders removed.

The Iso Cleans worked for me.Used them on my mono blocks, pre-amp power stage,and line conditioner.If you can't hear the differences in cables and power cords then don't bother with fuses.
