QUALITY AND SECURITY OF "LITTELFUSE" PRODUCTS


I find the tech specs of  LITTELFUSE very informative,enlightening and reassuring.
I am considering using them on my treasured reference level SPECTRAL electronics.
Anyone with experience using or EE level comments? Many thanks. Music lover and long time
audiophile, Peter.

One thing I’ll say about some products like, Atmasphere for example, having read about and actually heard them is they do take a somewhat unique approach (OTL tube amps) that is understandable in regards to how things work and why different and there are rules one can follow to help make sure things sound excellent when integrated and set up right. Or not

That’s much different than products that may appear unique but rational explanations regarding how they sound different or better are elusive. There are few reliable rules one can follow. Fuses and wires come to mind.

But look in the end its all about marketing and whether or not customers are happy or not. if someone thinks they hear something different or better facts really do not matter much.  Except maybe to someone else.   Paying more usually only helps with this. Silly humans!
but there is a surprisingly large and totally unnecessary snake oil


Its hard to sell products for top dollar that are advertised to work just like all the other good ones.

Is there anyone who really believes that high end audio manufacturers are so noble as to not do whatever they can to stand out from the crowd and try to maximize sales and profits, just like everyone else? After all, it "sounds better".  We should just be more trusting and less skeptical.   So funny!
Seems like Geoff has appointed himself spokesman for all High End fuse and wire makers.  Poor sods!   Reason enough to move on. Unless one really cares about wire crystal structures and theoretical physics in hifi audio.

Its an easy experiment if one cares enough. Just reverse wire or fuse directions and listen and compare to ones heart content. Or just spend your time enjoying the music if you still can after obsessing about such things.

I was given a Synergistic Red Fuse to try. I tried reversing directions. Did not hear a difference. So by geoff’s logic that means there IS NONE. What a joke!




Look if someone wants to waste their time and money why not  at least make  it easy.   Sometimes it can be hard to figure that stuff out.
