| What is the science behind audiophile fuses? I'm no closer to understanding how audio grade fuses work but I got my new Hifi Tuning fuses earlier today for my amps and DAC. I installed the fuse in my DAC. The change in sound was immediate and apparent. Deeper 3D imaging. A little more cl... | |
| What is the science behind audiophile fuses? Am I a little dry? Sorry. I’m getting old and crotchety, I guess. | |
| What is the science behind audiophile fuses? Don't be so pedantic. Nearly every topic on these forums are assaulted by naysayers who refuse to believe any value is gained in higher end hifi let alone the clever and often times inexpensive tweaks and tricks of the trade- based on no experien... | |
| Value of a premium Ethernet cable My findings with ethernet cables were that silver plated copper wire works best. Reasonable cost cables (5x over basic ethernet cables) that are silver plated can be had. I have used both Pangea SE (advertises Cardas wire) and AQ Cinnamon ether... | |
| What is the science behind audiophile fuses? “Nothing has been established-just as expected.” Sure, from your dogmatic, inexperienced in things hifi point of view nothing is established. The prose, these words written here have given you no great revelation. You came in with the “Audiopho... | |
| What is the science behind audiophile fuses? I have a SMSL Bluetooth amp on my back porch that I use with in ceiling speakers. When I sold my Thiel speakers last winter, I set them up in my shop with that SMSL amp. Thiels have the reputation of being hard to drive so I was kinda wondering ... | |
| What is the science behind audiophile fuses? The topic, “Do more expensive amps/gear sound better than cheaper gear?” didn’t exist a few decades back because we had a proliferation of Brick and Mortar Audio Stores. One could walk in and hear a dozen combinations of amps, preamps, speakers,... | |
| What is the science behind audiophile fuses? Is everyone familiar with Murphy’s Law? It states that if something can go wrong it will. Corollary 1: When left to themselves, things go from bad to worse. My favorite: in order for something to become clean, something else must become dirty, bu... | |
| What is the science behind audiophile fuses? No way! I’m ordering the copper slug. Wait. What if the copper slug does more for the sound than upgraded fuses? Then I’ll be torn between protecting my amps vs better sound. Or worse, I have to spend more money and get the SDFB’s. The sayin... | |
| What is the science behind audiophile fuses? Amazon has 99.99% pure copper rod 5mm in diameter for sale. Had already thought about it. Not sure I want to try it. | |
| I used to think pricey interconnects were snake oil... My son accompanied me to Axpona Tampa last year. He was 32 then and I compared what I was hearing in the various rooms with the impressions of his young ears. There were a few times where I did not detect subtle differences that he could hear bu... | |
| What is the science behind audiophile fuses? I’m cool. This discussion has peeked my interest. I have purposefully avoided audiophile fuses- up to now. Maybe it’s these hot summer days. I ordered some HiFi Tuning fuses for my amps and DAC. Not too expensive so I guess I’m dipping my toe... | |
| What is the science behind audiophile fuses? Exactly. People turn scientific theories into a religion. Everyone wants to believe in something. Hey, if you can look me in the eye and tell me you believe in the guy with a machine that goes “ping” then good for you. I not disputing your bel... | |
| What is the science behind audiophile fuses? I researched it. Perhaps you should research it a little more yourself. It might open your eyes. Radiocarbon dating is more art and guesswork than science. We have the science/engineering that we rely on for our day to day technology- a pretty... | |
| What is the science behind audiophile fuses? Science can’t prove the earth is older than 6000 years. You only believe it can. To think otherwise makes you uncomfortable, I bet. So many look to science for comfort that dying is an escape from misery, grief and boredom. So not true. |
