The guru on fuses:
Same for speakers and low current draw dacs....right?? Tom 
The guru on fuses:
I had my ARC Sp10 fail in 1989 when it caught on fire before the fuse blew I was able to unplug it..Tom 
The guru on fuses:
Knot Cuckoo vs Ignorant..Tom 
The guru on fuses:
In the ac line where they are less resonant and have a much greater conductive surface area. Also a sonic benefit. Tom 
The guru on fuses:
On the boards George where they are directional. Tom 
The guru on fuses:
A magnet has directionality built in and can follow the signal path in a circuit providing another enhancement. Tom 
The guru on fuses:
Fuses do affect performance.When you replace an unstable resonant device a dangle dong contained  in a glass straw (description of a fuse) with a stable solid directional device, a magnet the increase in performance is incredible. Make your own co... 
Less-Loss anyone?
ebm takes a bm on equipment he doesn't own while yelling hooray for equipment he does own or hopes to own. We should wonder why that is. Tom 
The guru on fuses:
Yes George a spring acting as a resonant whip..sh-t starts at the entry point of the device or circuit. You can spend thousands after that whiplash. Much better to avoid that tightrope before you pollute the whole circuit. I dont use fuses..Tom 
The guru on fuses:
I no longer use fuses. The devices I use by nature are directional so I place them by signal flow in the circuit. Much better image stabilty much quieter, more apparent output at the same gain setting, greater transparency at any volume. Sounds re...

Resistor upgrades have been discussed and revealed on these pages for years. The greatest upgrade for me over 20 years ago was to replace all the resistors in my speakers with Vishay resistor bridges. This portion of the upgrade was larger than th...

Myself and others have applied an opposite or different method to the mounting of crossovers internal to the cabinet.. We do secure the individual components to the board using rope caulk or other soft adhesives as well as zip ties. Instead of slo...

Just checked the LSA was purchased in Dec. of 2013..haven't heard any negative feedback from the client. Tom

I sold a friend an LSA Signature powering a set of CS 5's in a smallish room. That was 5 yrs ago.The bigger upgrade in sound quality was the Sistrum rack he purchased and I set up.  Tom

Yea I had to move my madness about shear waves and interfering energy else where as no one wants to know about it, cares about it or gives a hoot.Oh and about active laminar flow and conditioning the air the music travels with. Just kidding..Yes t...
