Audiophile circuit breakers ?


Anyone got those ? I just got 2 AHP Klangmodul IIIG circuit breakers, as a "finishing touch" to my 2 dedicated AC lines, but did not have a chance to try them yet.

I'm curious of your experience on this field.

AHP web address is:

Unfortunatelly the site is in German.

Look for Klangmodul II (silver contacts) and Klangmodul III (gold contacts). The ones wit "G" in their name use bigger fuse, and are said to sound better due to larger contact area.

In fact, Klangmodule DOES use ceramic fuse. It is cylindric in shape, and measures 1/2" x 2", so it is quite large. When you short circuit the AC line, you have to replace the ceramic fuse. The fuse values range from 16A to 50(!)A.
Gs5556 -> I live in Europe, in Poland to be precise, so I have an DIN compatible breaker box as standard.

The voltage may not be an issue (if anything, the voltage in Europe is higher than in the US). However, the mounting standard may be another story.

In any case, I'm surprised that no one tried to market circuit breakers in the US yet.
