Synergistic Red Fuse ...

I miswrote previous.

So with LIGO you could not place and playback any audio system in the same room as LIGO ..without IT being corrupted by the transmission of any shear wave or compressive wave..For LIGO to succeed outside its container it must duplicate that same containment where ever it travels. In your home with electronics that generate wave types from transformers motors and speakers LIGO would be a storage device for such wave types. Those devices would include diaphragms contained inside headphones and any device that has a power source or motor to drive those. They all generate shear waves and compressive waves as part of their motion .

Think about the possibility of eliminating all forms of motion..compressive and shear..then what Geoff?.Can you hear that? Anything.....Tom

Mmm, been a while since I've been here,  however,  question,  Has any one tried exotic fuses in speaker's and received  exceptional sound improvement?

I'm not sure what you’re going on about. LIGO’s extremely comprehensive vibration isolation system(s) are intended to reduce background mechanical noise to the point where the experiment is sufficiently sensitive to differentiate gravity waves, which are extraordinarily minute, from the background noise. What is the background noise I’m talking about? Well, in the case of LIGO - way out in the boondocks - that’s primarily seismic type mechanical noise produced by Earth crust motion (microseismic vibration), the primary energy of which is located down around 0 to 3 Hz. Since the interferometer I.e., laser shoots down a tunnel around 3 km long to a mirror and back, there's plenty of room for error. Therefore, extremely low resonant frequencies Fr for the isolating systems are required. So, if you could construct a LIGO at home you could obtain superior audio performance. How much is good enough? You might have to deal with acoustic waves (which are also mechanical in nature) and any residual noise on the top plate of isolation devices however that is produced with damping.

LIGO Also employs very robust vacuums around test equipment, recall vacuums are excellent at NOT transmitting mechanical noise. When I was in the exhibit with Mapleshade he had a brand spanking new Nachamichi Dragon CD player with separate DAC. The player had the capability of forming a relatively good vacuum seal around the CD transport when a CD was played. The entire Nachamichi system was isolated on my 6 degree of freedom Sub Hertz Nimbus Platform, the top plate of which employee special and highly effective dampers to deal with residual vibration on the top plate. Sort of a precursor to LIGO you could say, since that was just around the time LIGO began about 20 years ago.

So would the vacuum of LIGO be able to prevent electron motion and its resulting vibration  generated externally from an alternating current on a filament inside a fuse ?

While the ac signal is not the smallest or largest wave motion it is the first in line of the many that will follow. Heck many audio companies claim the source is the most important of signals...could it be the ac fuse..is so vital as it is the first component inside most audio devices. 
Hanging on this hair thin element is an 8 gauge power cord ..what kinda battle of scale and competing forces is that one. Just a projected image..Tom

That is a good point. And the resistance of a typical mains fuse will in fact be a bit higher than the resistance of an 8 gauge power cord of typical length. But to provide some perspective from a quantitative standpoint:

The combined resistance of the hot and neutral conductors of a six foot 8 gauge power cord is about 0.0075 ohms. A 6.3 x 32 mm Littelfuse series 313 glass fuse rated at 5 amps and 250 volts has a specified "cold" resistance (i.e., its resistance when conducting negligible current) of 0.0214 ohms. The resistance of the fuse will presumably rise slightly when conducting a typical amount of current, say 2 amps for a fuse having a 5 amp rating. So let’s call its resistance 0.04 ohms. (That would seem to be a reasonable assumption given that 0.04 ohms is almost exactly the same value that is indicated in the HiFi Tuning paper for a "standard" 5 amp 6.3 x 32 mm ceramic fuse when conducting 3 amps). 0.04 ohms x 2 amps results in a voltage drop of 0.08 volts. The 0.0075 ohm resistance of the 8 gauge power cord x 2 amps results in a voltage drop of 0.015 volts, substantially less than the voltage drop of the fuse.

Therefore if the incoming line voltage is 120 volts, the 8 gauge power cord would reduce the voltage seen by the component to 119.985 volts. The Littelfuse would reduce it further to 119.905 volts.

Will the overall reduction of approximately 0.1 volts have audible consequences? It seems unlikely, considering that at most locations line voltages probably fluctuate a good deal more than that from time to time, especially between daytime and nighttime. But I suppose it could conceivably be marginally significant in some cases, especially if the particular component being powered does not have regulated DC power supplies (as in the case of most power amplifiers).

On the other hand, though, **even if** the 0.1 volt drop does have audible consequences, if the line voltage at the particular location happens to be higher than the voltage the component was designed to sound best at (presumably 120 volts in the case of most components that are intended to be used in the USA and other 120 volt countries), that voltage loss might actually be advantageous. And the somewhat lower resistance of the HiFi Tuning 6.3 x 32 mm 5 amp Gold Cryo fuse (about 0.013 ohms when conducting 3 amps, as indicated in their comparison test paper) might actually be disadvantageous.
