Innuos Sensi application. I think you have to be on the Innuos echo system.   
Anyone else using slugs instead of fuses? Comments on metals used and sound please

@carlsbad2 Well I do and I love it.  Now I think I may give a SDB a try.  based on few reviews here.  That's not an amp I would ever own so I guess I can't comment.  Can you even trace your signal path?

@carlsbad2 not overly worried as it sounds fantastic, stuck so called Audiophile Fuses in her and after 6 months took them out and sold them. No Bueno just wasted my money. This is a shot of my Integrated internal and it was 10 fuses.

@carlsbad2 in other components they can have internal fuses, my DAC for example has 3 internal and no main fuse. Oh my Integrated has 4 internal fuses also.

I find this thread very interesting and hope it is not taken down, even though some of the comments are goofy. I understand the apprehension and safety concerns. I may give one of these Swiss Boxes a try, seems a bit safer than piece of titanium i... 
Alpha Core Goertz
@ozzy how are you liking the Goertz Ml 3 Divinity cables. They worth a $250 investment??   
Alpha Core Goertz
I thought the Zobels were for 10 foot or greater lengths and used with certain tube amplification?.  
DAC USB Hum
@carlsbad2 you sure got that right!  This is what gives USB a bad reputatiom among those who spend much money to avoid it at all cost, poor implementation in less espensive DACs.    
DAC USB Hum
@fuzztone some are not born diagnosticians like we are.😎😎   
DAC USB Hum
@fuzztone it can also be a shielding issue in either USB or LAN cable. Hum is a grounding issue.
