Hi Fi Tuning fuses


Has anyone used or is using HiFi Tuning fuses to benefit sound. Is is worth it to use in Ayre preamp, Mark Levinson 532h amp and possibly Benchmark DAC? Thanks for respectable replies.

Let me see if I have this right.....

If, in a discussion about turntables, I post that John Atkinson has stated that he finds his Linn LP12 to better reproduce the timing element in music than any other table he has heard. And by dint of my posting what John stated it is therefore incumbent upon me to prove his assertion?

Well I’ll be; I did not know that.

I couldn't care less if the Hi Fi Tuning fuse: 1- does or doesn't provide better sound than Buss, Little Fuse, or any other garden variety brand; 2- does or doesn't possess the potential to make possible damage to an amp. I have no ambition to make the case for either 1 or 2, prove either, influence or change anyone's mind on the subject. I had no idea that simply to bring to the attention of tube amp owners the experience with the HFTF that Roger Modjeski reported would require, even obligate, me to defend, even prove, that report. Shows what I know!
@rodman99999, the answer to your "why would a correctly valued fuse (in voltage, amperage, and time), as required by amps’ owner’s manual, be a danger to it’s DC circuitry?" question---a reasonable one, is exactly what Roger Modjeski (my "hero", according to Geoff ;-) provides in his writings on the subject of the Hi-Fi Tuning Fuse (brand name, not generic category). The Audiogon thread in which Modjeski discussed the fuse has been removed, but all one has to do to read what he has to say about it is go to the AudioCircle Music Reference Forum. Reading the related thread will provide the answer to your question; you will then never again need to ask it! If you aren’t willing to do that, I can only conclude the question was a rhetorical one.
Geoff, you once again mischaracterize my position on the Hi-Fi tuning fuse. I am agnostic on the claim of improved sound, and have merely alerted tube amp users to what Music Reference's Roger Modjeski has said about their use in any DC circuit. He's agin' it ;-). As I said before, his full thoughts can be found on the now-dormant AudioCircle Music Reference Forum, for those who wish to read them. Got it now? ;-)
