Quantum Science Audio Thread

I think I was the one who said you may be in the wrong hobby. I meant it as a joke. In retrospect, I see how it could have been taken as insulting. I apologize for that. My intent here has always been to find ways to improve my system through the experiences of others and to help others to improve their systems through my experiences as well. 

Take care ...

Frank

Keep it up, in the meantime catch this proof for your time and effort!

cerberus7941 posts08-16-2021 8:55pmA few months ago I purchased a used pair of speakers from another Agon member. To my surprise all the fuses were Orange fuses. I listened to them and then to satisfy my curiosity I replaced them with ordinary buss fuses and could not hear a difference. I did this test with a bunch of friends and neither I or them could hear a difference.

A fuse:
1: two end caps
2: short piece of fuse wire connecting the two end caps through a glass tube (that’s all she wrote).

To those "non technical" members that are interested, do not listen to fusers, listen to the techs of this industry that design the audio products you have.
AND YOU WON"T SEE THEM ON THREADS LIKE THIS AGREEING WITH FUSERS ABOUT THE SOUND IMPROVMENT DETAILS AND AC FUSE PLACEMENT DIRECTION, EVER!!!

Just clean and tighten your fuse holder and re-new your fuse (if old) with a good quality 50cent Bussman, Littlefuse or similar.
As with "many switch-on surges" they do deteriorate, bend, stretch and get crusty with electrolysis formations on their fusible wire elements before they give out, as these pics show of a fuse wire element ageing over time show. https://ibb.co/9NbTwqK
(even the $$$ boutique ones will age just as much also)

Cheers to those "non fusers" George

Thank you Frank

BTW this is not free speech here, it is an organized scam of the highest order I have seen in audio, with profits margins that are outrageous. 1000%-3000%

There it is, can’t ask for a better test between a 10cent fuse vs a $150 fuse than that. SAVE YOUR MONEY
