Why don't amplifier Companies use high end fuses?
Please note I didn’t say he wasn’t a good guy. But he said he has no idea how these fancy fuses work. I’m not the one saying it, he is. So, how can he design a fuse? Doesn’t make sense. As I said previously, he should have just sprung for the HiFi... 
Why don't amplifier Companies use high end fuses?
What is even more astonishing is that he did not immediately start using those German HiFi Tuning fuses in his own amps. I mean, what do you have to do, hit someone over the head? The name of which, HiFi Tuning, he could not even remember in the v... 
Why don't amplifier Companies use high end fuses?
Exactly! No high end amplifier companies use high end fuses. That’s what this thread is all about. I hate to judge too harshly or too quickly but could it be because they’re too cheap to use aftermarket fuses? 
Why don't amplifier Companies use high end fuses?
Ahem, sorry, there was no explanation. He said he didn’t know why they worked. If a manufacturer doesn’t know how they work how can he possibly design one for his product? Hel-loo! What he actually said was he uses circuit breakers, not fuses. He ...

Please bear with me a second. Not only is it bad for the sound to have SO MANY records in the room - or CDs, or books, any media - but it has NOTHING to do with absorption of Acoustic Waves or any such thing. The odd thing is that some of us have ... 
Why don't amplifier Companies use high end fuses?
Maybe it’s just me but it’s a little alarming to watch an amp manufacturer try to explain high end fuses on camera. It’s probably a good thing the guy from NJ who asked him the question didn’t ask him to explain fuse directionality. 😀 Not to menti... 
Which attributes do you value most?

Chances are good you just experienced another DMT flashback. You’re up awfully late for a school night, young man.  
Snake oil and tweaks that work!
Snake oil is a perjorative term. Wow! I’m glad we got that out of the way. 
Can't we all just get along?
Whoops! I obviously should have mentioned Germany in the same breath as Russia when it comes to propaganda and brainwashing. My apologies. Germany and Russia. Like corn and carrots.  🌽 🥕

He moves a bit awkwardly? You have got to be kidding. That spastic routine is part of his shtick. Part of his charm. Joe Cocker. Now, there’s a guy that moved awkwardly! 🕺 
Which watts are the right watts in SS amps?
@willemj - flattery will get you nowhere with me. 
Snake oil and tweaks that work!
Gee, it’s almost like folks around these parts haven’t quite figured out how the internet works. When it comes to Audio Forums and those pesky little naysayer scamps, everything always starts with the very best of intentions, very idealistic like,...

A Rooskie would certainly be the one to know all about brainwashing and propaganda, if anyone does.
