Sony XA5400ES fuse directionality...

Hello! I just purchased a pair of Hi-Fi Tuning (directional) fuses to upgrade the stock ones, and was wondering if any 5400 owners have discovered which way the current flows through them in this player. Do the arrows point to the right or left when viewing the fuse holders from the front of the player? Thanks for your help!

Best way is to try both, and the one way which sounds clearly better is the right one.
Of course, if you are not able to hear a difference, then it did not matter anyway.
(Sorry to be so mean about it, but it is the truth.)
((And I am not a doubter.. tweaks work.))

Dang Rrog, you beat me to it. Although my thought was, oh brother.
So now I'll make a suggestion. Try the fuse one way for a week, listening critically of course for the differences/improvements the fuse makes. Then switch the fuse around and repeat the procedure.
Once you've got the results you can start another thread explaining the results. I'm on pins and needles.
