Upgrading Fuses


Have a Audio Research Ref 3 and am considering upgrading the fuses but I am a little skeptical. Would like to hear from people who have try this. Hard to believe that fuses can make a substantial difference like the manufacturers claim. All advice appreciated.

Replaced all the fuses in my system sometime back with neodymium magnets..No fires..only thing that glows is much more music. Tom
Magnets!
Now that's interesting.

Could you add some more info?

When I was into the DIY replacement fuses I could hear the difference in sound between solid core copper and stranded copper wire.

Please elaborate on what the magnets bring to the party, and where you sourced them.

I have been using magnets instead of fuses as suggested by Rick Schultz for the last 5 years. Rick and I shared some common experience in amp layout, speaker design, resonance control and core ideas for cables. Rick's turn on of magnets were his totally.

The playback with the magnets installed was so bombastic and dramatic over the standard fuses treated with AVM...I never ventured out to find anything better. Granted that last statement doesn't normally describe my adventures in audio but the magnet addition was like I added a sub or two as the noise floor dropped and the resolution went thru my basement ceiling.

Mr L- re: Maggies and fuses. It's not difficult(in the least), to remove the x-over of a Maggie and bypass the fuse holder completely, eliminating the extraneous connections. Simple as removing a wire from one side of the holder and soldering it to the other.
Rodman,yes it is very easy to do,and when done, it's also easy to hear the improvement with the fuse out of the link.
