Playback Design with Hifi tuning fuse


Has anyone upgraded the stock fuse to Hifi Tuning fuse ? What is the fuse rating.

My country is 220V. The MPS-5 comes with stock glass fuse of rating 0.5A slow blow. So far, when I replace the glass fuse with Hifi tuning fuses (fast blow), Bussmann ceramic fuses (slow blow), all 0.5A, and all fuses are blown open. Then when I put back the 0.5A glass fuse back, it is OK. Very strange...

I am told that I should use a fuse of at least 1.5A (which means I need to buy a 2A fuse as 1.5A is uncommon). What is your experience ?

I had the same problem with my MPS-5, after e-mailing Andreas he recommended a 1.5 - 2.0 amp slow blow.
