We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses

Well, that's why you're lifting it completely out of context to redefine the meaning of my words. You deliberately lop off the qualifying statement "in essence" so you can reframe the statement to your liking. It's dishonest. 

@nonoise 
No doubt this is no court. That model of debate doesn't originate in court. It's a basic convention of civilized conversation. Am I to assume there's nothing civilized about this conversation?

The argument the "believers" make, and the only one as far as I can tell, is they hear something and the only way I can know myself is to try it myself. Ironically, this is a great way to believe in God or the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Just try to believe and magically you will. I don't think just wanting to believe in thing is a good reason to believe in things. For instance, I believe in God because they're is a powerfully compelling body of evidence to warrant considering the belief. But in this fuse thing, there's no body of evidence at all to justify the consideration. And just like devoted believers in God, nobody will persuade "fuse believers" to the contrary because they've had what they believe to be an authentic experience regardless of the actual phenomenology at work. 

Because I've been formally trained to do so, I know what tools work for convincing people to believe in things that they cannot see or hear. I know what it looks like when people and marketing departments use those tools. I'm pretty sure that's what I'm seeing here. 

And George, whatever...

Whatever back at you sunshine.

This is the only reason to change a fuse and not to expect some magical increase in sound quality.


This is all potential fusers need to know, forget the "snake oil’ being preached.

As this is what happens to any fuse (including the "snake oil" ones) that have seen too many turn on cycles, it’s called fuse ageing with "switch on surges", as there’s far more current goes through it at the moment of switch on than any other time, as it has to charge up empty power supply caps ect.
That’s why fuses and light globes can blow (if nothings wrong) at time of turn on surge, here are some pics of fuse ageing.

Just change your tired old fuse/s for the same quality $2 ones that were in there. Forget about the "snake oil fuses" for $600!!! + for 4

Cheers George

nonoise - .....to say someone needs to calm down (which is what "wrapped too tightly" implies) is not name calling.....

@nonoise 

That would be true.  However, I'm referring to your addressing kosst_amojan as costco. Please refer to your 04-27-2018 5:19pm post.
