Fuses on Magnepan .7 speackers


I have a new pair of Magnepan .7 speakers and have heard that the fuses in them are low quality and that I can actualy improve the performance of the speakers by replaing the fuses.

has anyone had experience with replacing fuses on there maggies?

@grekon39- ".....there are definitely two sides of the fence on this one." One could certainly say that! If you haven’t perused the offerings/opinions, in the following threads, you might be interested. Don’t know how many responses are based on speaker fuses, though I noticed a couple, in the second thread. https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/the-new-synergistic-research-blue-fuses and(back a tiny bit farther): https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/synergistic-red-fuse
Some fuse makers(ie: Synergistic) offer a free trial period, so- you’ve nothing to lose, by ACTUALLY TRYING their products(unlike MOST neigh-sayers). Listening to them, in your own system and with your own ears, is the only way to know if you can hear an improvement, worth the investment. I use Hi-Fi Tuning Supremes, in everything but my Maggies(in which I’ve always bypassed the links and fuse holders). In every application, upgraded fuses have made an audible uptick in performance. You can see an example of a return policy, here: http://www.synergisticresearch.com/fuses/blue/ If the neigh-sayers had their way, NO ONE would be trying ANYTHING that doesn’t fit THEIR way of seeing things. They’re quick to voice their(generally) untested opinions though: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdCxHJIYz8I
