FUSES??? Just when I just replaced all my PC cords.

So I come across what I think is the next magic pill. "FUSES" Synergistic Research RED Quantum Fuse to be specific. Guaranteed to make a significant improvement in overall sound quality. Or a full refund. Gotta love that, total satisfaction. So, it's got my interest. Let's say one would like to challenge the promise. I have a Jolida tube amp (801) a Jolida JD9II phono pre and a Jolida glass tube DAC III. And I would like to try one fuse to start with. Which of the three components of my system would you recommend trying first?

Thanks in advance for any opinons.

Found a small Canadian company run by Denis Sureau on Audio Asylum. His prices were at a price point that got my attention, the build
quality is excellent and his advice and knowledge was impressive. So I took a chance and purchased his recommended Mega Ultra LH cord for my Furman power conditioner to the wall. I was sold, and one by one replaced all cords with his line. Couldn't be happier.

Parts Connexion is selling Hi-Fi Tuning Silver Star fuses at $20 (originally sold for $40). So I ordered one for my amp. Basically a twenty dollar audition. If I feel there is an audible improvement I will replace all my fuses. Question;  Is there right/wrong way to install fuses?

Mr. Pritchard, I'm truly sorry you feel that I became a cheapskate in trying
a fuse upgrade that only cost $20. For your information, I'm a disabled veteran living on a fixed income, and personally would feel awfully guilty telling my beautiful wife that I spent $120 on a fuse for my amp.
Not everyone on this site makes seven figures, and can spend without
regret, but I will tell you one thing Mr. Pritchard, nobody enjoys listening to their gear ( though modest by most standards) than me.
