Audio Research Ref 3 Preamp + Mcintosh Mc501's

Thanks Dev
I run with Kef 205/2.
Power all my gears with Furutech power cords, Cardas Golden Cross IC's, Nordost Red Dawn speaker cables and forgot to mention Primare Cd31 as player
Do you think it'll make a difference by changing the fuse on the Ref 3?

All,

Which turn table, cartridge and phono will be best mates for the AR Ref 3 + Mc501's combo?
I'd like to get into turn table but have very little experience!

Thanks

Dev,
Did you upgrade to hifi-tuning fuse? Did you change the main fuse only? What fuse size did you use 20mm or 32mm? Which direction did you install the hifi-tuning fuse? I believe there is a directional arrow on the fuse which point Left to Right but i don't know how this will get apply on the AR Ref 3

Did you get big improvement with the fuse upgrade?

Thanks
