Determining current flow to install "audiophile" fuses.
Too bad, Mapman.  If you had the original ones, the ones I had, you wouldn't be in the fix you're in.   
QUALITY AND SECURITY OF "LITTELFUSE" PRODUCTS
There must be thousands of advanced audiophiles, you know, the ones who actually care about fuses and sound quality who, unlike manufacturers, DID get the memo regarding fuse directionality. What we have here ladies and germs is The Backfire Effec...

Determining current flow to install "audiophile" fuses.
The original monster cable, which came with arrows indicating the direction of current flow were actually unshielded cables. They had clear jackets so you could see the (unshielded) copper right through them. So you can’t use the excuse that the d...

Sonic Barrier damping sheets vs cork
In most applications I’ve tried lead it hurts the sound especially in the bass, makes it sound weird. And lead seems like SUCH an ideal material. Not too soft, not too hard.  Lol  Maybe you will have better luck than I.

I hate to burst everybody’s bubble. Not only are all fuses directional but all wire is directional, at least the ones with metal conductors. It’s not like this is exactly headline news, which makes this so difficult. Every Yutz with ears has know ...

I have no reason to doubt that.;-) 
What is the perferred material for a TT shelf?
If it were me I'd use the roller bearing assembly type Isolators in conjunction with, I.e., on top of the sand filled boxes.  Should be a match made in Heaven given the sandbox is acting primarily in the vertical direction and the roller bearing a... 
interconnect choice
I’m actually a big fan of the hollow oval conductor approach of Analysis Plus having been the proud owner of their copper oval interconnects which in fact turned out to be directional. I also had one of the Analysis Plus Pro Oval Power Cords which...

Al, Thanks for providing the link to the HiFi Tuning data discussion of yore and thanks to no noise for the link to the data sheets. I went back and read the page of the discussion of the HiFi Tuning data this morning and was surprised to see it h...

Mapman, knowledge is what's left after you subtract the stuff you forgot from school.;-)

I’m a big Sophie Shevardnadze fan, myself.
