PADIS vs Furutech fuses
Beating that dead horse again, Kosst?You need a new hobby. One where you can relax and not get so worked up. Being wrapped too tightly can lead to frays and splits in the wraps and then, when they burst, the fun is over.It's been shown that our he... 
PADIS vs Furutech fuses
@auxinput, This is a coincidence. I just got through listening to 3 CDs that I'm very familiar with. Since I leave everything on 24/7, there's always juice going through the fuses so it aids in break in. It's been awhile since I've had the PADIS f... 
Does anyone use hearing aids when listening to your hi-fi audio system?
Like you, @2psyop, I have hearing damage from shooting guns in my adolescent days and although I scored 100% on word recognition, I have trouble hearing normal conversation in a noisy setting like a restaurant. All the consonants like ch, sh, ng, ... 
What exactly is colored sound?
Colored sound is what we're all hearing. Take any one of us and sit us in front of another's system and we'll not entirely agree with it.All the best,Nonoise 
Issues with AudiogoN forum website, anyone?
This has happened before and Admin is usually on it until it's solved.On an aside, I've gotten really quick at moving that mouse and reclicking. 👍

Sounds like loose lips sync slips.  
I'm wondering if I can fit this in my house

I heard them at the LA Audio show  and they were nothing close to sounding strident in the mid and highs. In fact, there seemed to be a tiny bit of upper mid bass emphasis but that could have been because of the room set up or a design feature sin... 
Test
Run that by me again.  
Why don't amplifier Companies use high end fuses?
@geoffkait , I agree with your assumptions regarding fuses and their intended uses, which originally didn't include audio. I think it was just a matter of time before some forward thinking audiophiles took a good, hard look at what's out there and... 
PADIS vs Furutech fuses
@auxinput,Great review there ol' chap. Now you've got me interested in the Furutech but what stops me from completely going for it is I'm in that caveat you stated in regards to the warm nature of gear like my Marantz and how what you're experienc... 
Why don't amplifier Companies use high end fuses?
Sometimes it's better to go out with a whimper than a bang, to do go gently into that good night. I just got off the phone with a wonderful gent from The Cable Co. and he spoke of how there are 3 different levels of fuses out there. They mostly co...

Have you tried it? 
Missing shipment
All someone has to do is wait to see if you're home and then walk up and take the package. Happens all the time in the land of the free. Like stated, unless you're required to sign for it, there's not much you can do.Check with you neighbors to se...
