??? Fuse UpGrade??What Size???


 In an effort to maximize the potential of my SimAudio Moon 240i integrated amplifier I have decided to try one of the Synergistic Research Purple fuses...
 The owners manual states it uses a 4 amp,Fast Blow,Type AG fuse..
 However,there are 2 sizes of this fuse offered,5mm x 20mm & 6.3mm x 32mm..How do I determine which size I need? Pulling the old one out & measuring it comes to mind but I was hoping there is a faster way to determine this...
 Thanks very much for any assistance..

@freediver Littlefuse and Bussman make the best fuses around IME. Just for fun, you might obtain some and then do the same listening test that you did in your post just above.

BTW running an overrated fuse is bad advice. If for any reason your equipment failed with an overrated fuse in it, even if the fuse was known by some to fail earlier than stated on the label, your warranty would be void. If the fuse actually held to its rating, it could start a fire if there was a component failure.
