| We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses Al, cogent thoughts, as usual, and with cordiality. I wish all discussion on Agon was like this. My statement was intentionally hyperbolic. However, I do not believe - at least I have never encountered in 12 years of reviewing dozens of components... | |
| We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses Kosst, I will explain that your description of aftermarket fuses is misapplied, as your other descriptions of the effects of aftermarket fuses wherein you discount them. You conclude that they can do nothing exceptional, so obviously you think aft... | |
| We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses Imo one of the most foolish notions in HiFi is the idea that the better the design, the less sensitive it is to changes. That's called mediocrity in my book, and if any piece of gear operated on that principle, I would consider it junk. | |
| We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses Thank you again to participants. You are supplying the necessary information for my purposes. :) | |
| We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses Imo it is irrelevant to reference DIY or Mods as an argument that aftermarket fuses are without merit. The question was not fuses in comparison to DIY and Mods, but in comparison to stock fuses. Obviously, modded gear would benefit similarly from ... | |
| Have You Ever Owned QUADS? Nostalgia gets in your eyes. Or, perhaps we should say nostalgia gets in your ears. | |
| Speakers Bought Brand New For The Cost Of A Good Night Out, That "Kick Ass". Expensive and overrated compared to the original Insignia 2-Way bookshelf speakers from Best Buy years ago for $50/pr. ;) | |
| Which 30K Speakers Would You Give Up For Tekton Double Impacts? jayctoy, yes, I was at AXPONA; too bad we couldn't chat for a while. I was on a tight schedule of meetings and demos. I thought it was a lovely show. | |
| We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses gdhal, I think within 4-5 years it could become commonplace for upper end manufacturers. Some will avoid it, and that is to be expected. Among the early adopters of new technology as manufacturers I think several will incorporate it within a coupl... | |
| We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses Better not tell the skeptics that someday their components will have aftermarket fuses inside. ;) | |
| Most resolving Speaker As might be expected answers will vary widely based on the acceptance of the technology preferred by the user. Do not expect conformity or agreement on this. You will be far better off selecting the technology you accept as being able to recreate ... | |
| Which 30K Speakers Would You Give Up For Tekton Double Impacts? Any given speaker of any given technology can seem overwhelmingly superior, somewhat regardless of cost. The novelty of the sound often convinces the listener that the new/novel speaker has it all. Only with time does it become apparent that one h... | |

| We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses Moderators, feel free to clean up and close the thread; I've gotten what I wanted out of it. I suspect if it is allowed to continue the rancor that was found on the other thread will increase here. I would rather this be closed than to lose the go... | |
| We Need A Separate Forum for Fuses Can we return to productive conversation? Now, where is our volunteer among the skeptics who will try an aftermarket fuse? It's not like I'm asking you to put up $1,000 for a cable. I'm guessing someone is willing to take a $50 risk to see if fuse... |
