Audiophile quality fuse holders


There has been multiple discussion on audiophile fuses, but I was wondering if there are any “audiophile quality” fuse holder available. I see tons of quality IEC plugs, quality RCA, etc. etc. advertised but I haven't come across anything on fuse holders themselves. I'm pretty sure there is lots of potential for improvement over the cheap plasticky ones available from electronic stores. Has anybody looked into this before?



Ps. Would the members of the deaf audiophile society be so kind as to refrain from telling us why we wouldn't be able to hear a difference? Thank you in advance.

I have worked with a number of fuse holders/clips when upgrading my electronics boards.  Like teo_audio stated, "pure copper" is never used because of spring strength/tension. 

I have found that the best fuse clips/holders are made by LittelFuse company.  They have the strongest spring tension (which is important to me).  You don't want a weak spring fuse holder.

They are made from either from spring brass or Phosphorus Bronze (copper alloy).  Some are silver plated.  I generally do not like silver plating because it adds a glare to the upper mids/highs.  Otherwise, get the model that fits your board hole alignment.
