Audiophile Fuses

Does anyone use such a thing? and if so which ones? I've seen them for about £35 which seems a lot to me :o

Are they worth the money?

I borrowed a 24k gold-plated Power Fuse from a friend.I think he payed £25 :shock:

I could not hear any discernible difference from my bog-standard one. :think:

Perhaps my system is not as revealing as some?

They are a load of useless money making bollocks - is that plain enough.

Well you can always try them and tell me I am wrong. I do not mind being told I am wrong.

I'm off the same school of thought. An expensive fuse will NEVER EVER sound as good as no fuse at all.
Same with IEC plugs, I'm sure a £90 IEC connecter will be better than one from the pound shop, but hard wire your mains cable and it will sound better than any IEC connecter .

I use these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/290800283722? ... 1423.l2649
They made enough of a difference for me to buy another two.
