I grant this is all trial and error, but I don't think I have enough richness of trials to say much. - Norm 13:19:06 11/11/07 (3)

I started with the power amps (SET monoblocks) - Dave Pogue 06:17:13 11/13/07 (1)

Sorry to complicate things but on some devices the IsoCleans are superior and others the Hi-Fi Tuning. - Norm 21:11:34 11/14/07 (0)

Has anyone made a piece of audio gear... - larryLR 06:05:18 11/11/07 (1)

I would imagine that Kondo did. He certainly was concerned about wire draw. nt - Norm 07:15:45 11/11/07 (0)

Unless the manufacturer makes some effort, listening is your only choice. nt - Norm 07:17:31 11/11/07 (0)

Lloyd started me down this path, but also my experiences with the IsoClean fuses lead to this concern. nt - Norm 07:19:35 11/11/07 (0)

fuses adapt directionality - Janos 21:38:47 11/09/07 (0)

You owe it to yourself... - BFB 11:08:20 11/09/07 (1)

You may be right but that is a bridge too far. nt - Norm 11:56:11 11/09/07 (0)

Last night the system was sounding so outstanding that I decided to reverse the fuse. - Norm 06:06:59 11/09/07 (0)

Any thoughts as to why? - pburant 13:05:40 11/08/07 (15)

I guess all that can be done is to buy IsoClean or try Hi-Fi Tuning and try both ways. nt - Norm 06:00:28 11/10/07 (0)

When it is unmarked as is the case with the Hi-Fi Tuning fuses, you merely try it both ways & choose the best. - Norm 17:12:49 11/08/07 (0)

It is from the hot blade directly to the ac transformers. - Norm 17:09:39 11/08/07 (0)
