Aftermarket fuse to tame a bright system?
audphile1 You should order the furutech gtx-d NCF outlet and try it out. See how it works in your system. I’m tempted. My system is biamplified and basically runs on four 20A derated dedicated lines: one for the HF amplifier, one for the ... 
Aftermarket fuse to tame a bright system?

Where Do I Go from Here?
