Will there be any 'Arrow' mark in a Fuse holder?

Hi Everybody, I am new to this Forum. Please clarify that,

Will there be any 'Arrow' mark in a fuse holder to show

the direction to fix a fuse? Will all type of fuses have

'Arrow' mark? I need the advices to upgrade the fuses.

In one of a forum, I read the following 'Message'as follows:-

"The fuse has to be parallel to the overall direction of the sine waves coming from the wall socket and into you audio gear. If they enter at an unusually steep angle, the top (or bottom) peaks and throughs will get clipped off or attenuated and you will get jagged or almost square waves in you signal. The resulting SQ will be harsh and grating to the ears. Prolonged usage may damage the speaker coils as well."

So, friends,please give me a clear picture to replace a

'fuse' in my Preamp and DAC. Thank you.

Regards,

Rhapsodi.

A bit of info here, at least about Furutech and Hi-Fi Tuning fuses:(http://www.6moons.com/audioreviews/net/net.html) (http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?aamps&1261938237)

Another site of interest(especially beginning at the last paragraph of page 2): (http://www.xtremecables.com/PDFsMisc/Furutech_Fuses_User_Testimonials.pdf)

The point of trying? If you haven't heard it, or tried it, YOU HAVE NO OPINION. It's amazing how so many, that know so little, find so much to type about. OH- and FYI, "absolute phase" is also a correct term: (http://www.omegamikro.com/Absolute_Phase.html)

Try a little education(though I doubt you're interested), and read the fourth section of this article(relating to harmonics): (http://www.arbiter.com/files/product-attachments/absolute_phase.pdf) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_phase) (http://www.gcaudio.com/resources/howtos/absolutephase.html) (http://www.sweetwater.com/expert-center/glossary/t--AbsolutePhase) OH, THAT'S RIGHT: None of those people know what they're talking about(ROTF/LMAO). Actually, I was quoting Ivor Tiefenbrun(founder of Linn Products Ltd), whose view of those that make statements concerning things they haven't heard, or tried, many respect and agree with.

Your semantic gymnastics are what's irrelevant. Like so many; you block out any truth that does not conform to YOUR definition, or understanding of an issue. Further: It's obvious you are VERY CHALLENGED in the comprehension department, or simply not reading the articles, the last three of which ALL mention polarity, as it relates to phase(but then- no one knows anything but you)! Help yourself to the last word(I'm certain you can't help yourself). It seems we've entered into a battle of wits, with an unarmed man(a total waste of time).
