Audio Grade Fuse, Anyone?

With all the money that most of us spend on upgrading power cords, is there any left for the fuse that is omnipresent in all the components, that little piece of necessary evil that all current flows through? Is it worth researching into? Care to share your experience?

Thanks for all the response. I just had the fuses in my Sonic Frontiers Power 3 pair replaced with the Isoclean gold 7A slow blow and I have to agree with Tbg that the results were rather amazing. Background is quieter and images become clearer. If you don't mind a cliche here, it is really "veil lifting". I am going to replace the fuse in my front end equipments next.

Tbg,
The funny thing is I was just as confused as you in terms of the direction and I made the same assumption the the arrow should be pointing from the PC to the equipment. Did you try the opposite direction to comprae the sound?

Edesilva,
I don't think I quite follow you. Are you saying that we should not try to replace the fuse with another fuse (similar current rating) because it might blow up the amp? Or putting the fuse in in the wrong direction might disable the fusing function?
