McIntosh fuse changeout to make better sound

Interesting fuse pictures. Looks almost like the last one lost it's seal a bit.

If you are reading this thread and new here make sure you also visit other forums just to realize how crazy some of this stuff is here and the zealotry which surrounds it by the proponents of psuedo science. Of course real tweaks do real things and snake oil tweaks merely transfer wealth.

  I have been looking for a cable cooker that would work on my fuses. The problem is the "Blackout" super coating has messed up cooking since the stuff just starts dripping off when heated. The bag of "Precious Pebbles" was a problem too since the plastic bag melted all over the fuse. On a serious note now I preferred the beeswax impregnated fuses the most until I ran into FMI fuses which are much better. The Fecal Matter Impregnated fuses are simply the best and have measured to be so though I wont provide any data to prove this. You either understand the subtle nuances of superb audio, or you are just another dirt behind your phony golden ears poor attitude full of envy non entity. Those of us who know just know and we who know feel sorry for those of you who don't know what you don't know.

'That may be partially true, but I suspect many of the naysayer measurementalists don’t even own systems. They’re just here to argue and disrupt and by that measure they are doing a great job.'


What's in an unverified forum claim when you can boast and list stock pictures of the "system" you claim to own and pretend? I have often wondered how many of these 200G + systems claimed to be owned around here really exist and how many are bragging rights fiction from those who want you to be impressed with their fibs. There are some basics in audio and the veracity of some claims are easily measured and repeatable and will withstand double blind tests. Then there are the space ship people with heretofore unheard of technologies and discernment who somehow manage to evade the double blind test thingamajigger.
