@davida : so any silver fuse as it is the best conductor ?

Hey jackā¦there are various combinations even gold plated silverā¦
The Hi Fi Tuning Supreme3s for exampleā¦yet better conductivity
is available with graphene based Synergistic Orange fusesā¦
Each has a different effect on music qualityā¦your ear will determine what is
best for youā¦
As an aside fuses take a good long time to burn in ā¦

All great answers guys 
Anyone did a direct HiFi Tuning Vs SR Orange?

Hey Tubesā¦yes I haveā¦the Hifi Tuning Supreme3s with gold plated silver
conductor gives a warm fuller sound with very good detailā¦tends to roll
off some at the topā¦while SR Oranges are lighter on their toes and reveal
quite a bit more fiber-bone with airier details ā¦
The hard part is choosing; if I want vanilla with chocolate syrup or twangy sherbetā¦
Both fuses require long long burn in before they settle inā¦the process can be
frustrating because they may sound good then become very indifferent and back
forth you go kind of like a winding country mountain road full of switchbacks
untill you reach your desired destinationā¦and once there Oh My how sweet it is !!!
Best wishes friend
They are both excellentā¦
Hey jackā¦Iām not sure which other fuses use silver other than HI FI Tuning
and I think they do have a āstraightā silver fuseā¦but am not certainā¦
You can look it upā¦

I have a total of 19 fuses in my system with 10 just for the BHK300ās. I use HifiTuning Supremeās for the rails and SR Blueās for mains. The rest of my components are a mix of the same fuses. I donāt have the patience to chase the ultimate presentation, these are good enough.

Watchdogā¦right on friendā¦
Amazingly the same thing happens with vacuum tubesā¦

I second your point.
Amazingly, Iāve often read rather bad things about HifiTuning Supreme.
In a summary:
āThe āHifi-Tuningā copper-fuses are good, the silver ones are in most cases bad. The āhifi-tuning ultimate copperā is not bad, and will be offered for those who will do some tweaking.ā
This is from a manufacturer and tweaker.

As Paul himself has said in other threads, the control board fuse really doesnāt have the ability to affect sound quality on the P10. The circuit breaker is the device in which current to the amplifier sections is derived, and has nothing to do with the fuse. I fear youāre experiencing the placebo effect.

Opinions are like A**holes everyone has them. I use HiFiTuning Supremes extensively and my system sounds exceptional. That opinion smacks of self serving or conflict of interest.
Itās a great sounding placebo!

My believe is a fuse is there to protect whatever circuit it is powering no matter where. And current is going through every one of those fuse, so how clean those currents are will affect the sound. Every fuse matters. Thatās my opinion.

So who is the manufacturerā¦and the tweeker you
are referring to ?
The manufacturer of Mundorf electrolytics supplies the filament materials
to maker of HiFi Tuning fusesā¦materials are not shabbyā¦
As for me the idea seemed plausibleā¦gave em a tryā¦
No going back nowā¦
And yes they benefit every componentā¦
The only way to know is to tryā¦

On my P600, fuse matters, thatās where the current is derived. On my P10, it makes no difference. Just sayināā¦ Happy motoring!

Iāve always found fuses to be a rather benign way to tweak. Iāve never had a fuse sound worse, but sometimes itās just a nominal benefit. At HiFiTuning prices putting in 10 fuses for BHK300ās is not very painful. The upside is considerable. If it was 10 Super Duper Beeās Waxes you could buy a new amp.

Iāve stated before in another earlier post, when I first got my P20, I played around with switching the stock fuse with the SR Orange and the Beeswax Ultimate Premier, and while the Orange was notably cleaner sounding than the stock, the Beeswax took it to another level making the other two a bit more veiled sounding.

How many fuses does the P20 require?
Only one, the Beeswax. The others are not worthy.
Edit: I shouldnāt be so hard on the others. They are all better than the stock, but once you hear something better, you really canāt go back. After the Beeswax, no way I would go back.

What brand of fuse do you put in your PS DAC and of what value/type?
I ordered the Edcor 4400 and plan to upgrade the fuse.
