I am a big fan of the Sluggos. It makes most sense to me to have a Swiss Digital Fuse box behind them though. While the odds of disaster are low, if it can happen, it will eventually. Also, they can be reset, so it's the last fuse I will ever have to buy. I have three and they have really elevated the sound in my system. It really is interesting how one can dial in the sound one prefers with different metals. I've noticed that it took my system a week to settle after each change. I have found the Gold immersed Bronze to be my overall favorite so far. I hear Mark has Tellurium Copper with Rhodium Plating sluggos coming soon and am looking forward to trying these next.
Anyone else using slugs instead of fuses? Comments on metals used and sound please
I recently began experimenting with slugs in place of fuses on most of my components and the results have been VERY rewarding. I'll write up a full review eventually but am awaiting possible different metal slugs in the near future. I started with copper and the improvement from stock fuses to the copper slugs was quite noticeable but, honestly, nothing compared to the upgrade from copper to solid silver slugs from Golden State Silver and, shockingly, titanium slugs. Can anyone comment on their DIRECT experience(s) with slugs other than copper? I'm looking into tungsten and possibly molybdenum presently. I'd love to try platinum or palladium but that's probably beyond my reach. AND PLEASE, THERE'S NO NEED TO COMMENT ON HOW FOOLISH IT IS TO BYPASS THE FUSE WITH SLUGS-----WE ALREADY KNOW---YOU'VE TOLD US EXHAUSTIVELY.
