Audio Grade Fuse, Anyone?


With all the money that most of us spend on upgrading power cords, is there any left for the fuse that is omnipresent in all the components, that little piece of necessary evil that all current flows through? Is it worth researching into? Care to share your experience?

Got a hold a few samples of mystery audio grade fuse fomr HK called infinity @ Power from Power-House, completely unknown.
I cna tell you the difference is just staggering it is like going form a cheap OEM power cord (yes the ones the manufacturer wil include with the component) to a super duper power cords like the $2,000 mighty SHunyata Anaconda or the Kimber PK10silver, or the Acrolink PC4030 with Oyaide plugs, . . you get teh picture.
YES !!! They're that good like changing form inexpensive reissue tubed to goint to teh originals NOS.
Gang I'm teling you they're wirth every penny you put into it.
revoice my components completely for the better.
I have en extremely revealinbg system and can tel teh difference in spades.

Hope this helps;

Spend a few bucks don't upgrade yuour components untill you know what it can do witha good AC power filter and good fuses!!1

Take care;

Mr G- Any chance you could provide a clearer addy or URL for the source of those fuses?
Hi Rodman

I actually posted where to get the infinity power when they first come out. Here is a reprint of my original post:

“Some audiogon members have contacted myself for details of the "Power Matrix" that I mentioned in this thread sometime ago. The Power Matrix has now been discontinued and replaced by a new series "Infinity Power", selling for a high price of something like US 50 per piece. The only dealer that I could trace who carry these is a distributor located in the Far East. Audiophiles are known for their craziness but I am not sure if anyone would go the distance to get a fuse from overseas. I am including the details for information anyway:

Audio Link (H.K.) Ltd.
Email : [email protected]
Contact : Philip

The limited information on the promotional materials refers that these use precious metals as conductor and housed in a quartz tube for micro-vibration and EMF absorption, etc.

Available rating is 0.25A, 0.5A, 1A, 2A, 3A, 4A, 5A, 6A, 8A, 10A, 15A, 20A.
Standard fuse size is 20 mm , 25 mm or 30 mm.

There will probably some overseas shipping and remittance / paypal surcharge. Remember to remind the dealer to package it well to avoid breaking these during shipment.”

What I understand is, the infinity power has extended to more expensive premium models since my original post. My samples on hand are the originals and sound very good. Still I found the Hi-Fi Tuning silver filament fuse a little livelier.

I shall be around Hong Kong after mid October. If you cannot get hold of these through the dealer I may be able to help.
I should also mention that, I am not sure if the reason that the Infinity Power has not been introduced to the US market has anything to do with meeting the safety standards. As I remember it, the packaging of these fuses does not accompany specifications other than fuse value and length.
