Audio fuses

With fuses , for instance in digital you want the most neutral to send the signal downstream.i use Hifi tuning Supreme, on my Krell S55I amp
The Synergistic fuses are a bit better,fuses are cumulative,better low level detail,quieter,better separation in small steps but add up per component .
There are many doubters,who have an opinion and never gave them an ample try,you need roughly75-100 hours for full breakin ,and
Look at the metals resistance index Silver,Copper,Have roughly 7x less
Resistance then the cheap stock steel fuses,a huge bottle neck when you think About it , Times how many fuses you have !!

I recall talking to someone at The Cable Co, and he told me that the HiFi Tuning fuses were better built than the SR fuses but the SR fuses had that "tunneling effect" process (Tesla), or, something like that.

I just went for the HiFi Sliver fuses since they were the cheapest at the time and they bettered the stock fuses I had. I think that anything more costly amounts to quibbling in most, but not all cases as there are folk here who I trust who say that SR fuses work better in their systems.

As always, YMMV.

All the best,

According to Laura Dearborn's book on audio,just cleaning the fuse and fuse holder can make a noticeable difference. Simply taking a fuse out can rub off deposits. Next time your thinking about changing fuses clean contacts and report your findings.

Hi Blueranger

I've heard the same thing from other more experienced audiophiles as well. They told me before I start spending funds on the expensive audiophile type fuses they told me to clean the fuse holder and fuses themselves. If possible I use metal polish on the fuse holders and fuses themselves and then spray them down with deoxit cleaner. I was told to use as much elbow grease as possible to get the fuses clean. I believe I heard a difference but am unsure as when I did this I made all sorts of tweaks at the same time. I did save a bunch of money though. The polish and cleaners weren't anywhere near as expensive as the fuses I needed.

I agree with Audioman58 on the Hi-Fi Tuning Supreme fuses for digital and phono sources. They preserve the harmonics better which involves me more but are not as dynamic in pre and power amps. Recently I experimented with Audio Horizons' Platinum fuses for my downstream components and they are significantly better than the SR20s in dynamics and neutrality. Because of the neutrality they bettered the SR20s in source components but are not in the same league as the Supreme for this application.
