Roger Modjeski (Music Reference, RAM Tubes) had a thread dedicated to fuses in his AudioCircle Forum. In it Modjeski disclosed what he had discovered during his investigation into some of the audiophile fuses, and how they compared to the Littlefuses he supplied in his amplifiers. One of the biggest boutique fuse makers went to work on the AudioCircle honchos, and Modjeski's Forum was closed. The thread is still available for reading, for those who are interested enough to search for it.
Fuse Direction for Pass Labs Amp and Preamp
I am going to re fuse my Pass X250.8 and XP-32 with Synergistic Research purple fuses in a couple of days. I was hoping to get advice on a rule of thumb for direction of the fuses. My instinct tells me to start by installing the fuse by the direction of the lettering on the fuses. I am thinking that the direction should be the lettering left to right with the beginning of the lettering facing out of the amp and the end of the lettering facing into the amp. Does this sound right?
