A $2 fuse (5 for $10 from Amazon) seems to do the trick. Lights are on in both the JC 1 monoblocks and the JC 2 preamp. Now I need a pair of AAA batteries for the remote to try the Parasound trio with the KEF Reference 1s. Sources will be discs and Roon via an Oppo 205.
Fuse for Parasound JC 1 monoblock
Parasound tells me the fuse is a T12A, but they don't know if it's slow or fast blow. Do any of you? The JC 1s will be used with KEF Reference 1s.

"jaymark489 posts @glennewdick but think of those enhanced sonics you would end up with???" sorry snake oil to me, I've never heard a difference in fuses, at least the ones I've tried. don't even get me started on directional fuses in an AC circuit seriously this hobby has gotten out of hand. |

wow $600USD for a fuse, wow this hobby is getting out of hand. that’s close to a grand in Canadian money. crap my preamp has 4 of them my amps have 4 of them each, mono blocks, I’d have more money in fuses then the amp costs. |
I would think now would be a good time to check out the world of audiophile fuses. Here is a link to The Cable Companyhttps://www.thecableco.com/catalogsearch/result/index/?q=Fuse&product_list_order=price_asc |
