and have explained why there are slow blow and fast blow fuses? Tweak, We all know you have your way of thinking on power amps, AC mains, and how everything bigger is better and the Engineers have another.If something ever does go wrong with your amp's output stage or power supply, you will wish you had all those fuses with proper values in place that you think are not necessary.

There is only one fuse in my power amp. The value is the max value the designer "allows". Anyone "should" be able to hear that a bigger fuse sounds better and no fuse at all, a short, will sound the best ,IMHO. This is not to say anyone should do this but it does lay the ground work for the rational for bigger than necessary diodes to be used. Bigger solid state outputs will also sound better. A bigger power supply, bigger transformers, bigger cap banks, bigger wire will also sound better, not only in my opinion but the opinion of Nelson Pass. You might want to read what the engineer Nelson Pass has to says about power supplies and bigger. Also a bigger power supply will often if not always have a bigger , safely and appropriately installed, bigger fuse. A big problem companies have with bigger is the bigger cost . Big Tweaker

This is just wrong. No surprises here I guess.
