...but that's cool, if you never checked.
I always determine current flow before installing, and the HiFi Tuning fuses have an arrow indicating directionality (which is, by the way, in the same direction as the writing.) I have yet to find one that is incorrectly labeled, and only sought your findings in that regard. I have been using them since their introduction eons ago, and find them to offer fair value for their (somewhat high) prices. Other premium fuses have not fared so well in my evaluations (especially gold-plated fuses), but YMMV and all that.
As you may (or may not) be aware, even shit el cheapo fuses are directional, at least in my experience. They can be improved sonically for nothing by subjecting them to a simple 24 hour freeze in your freezer, but then wrap them in a cloth that also has been frozen, and then let thaw in the fridge for another 24 hours, as per the Belts, Stu and Geoff Kait (am I allowed to say his name?) The sonic improvement wrought by same is pretty impressive, especially when cost (zero) is factored. Adding silicon O-rings on the glass/ceramic body can also improve the sonics for pennies. But I still use the HiFi Tuning fuses as my go-to premium fuses. I wouldn't be without them.
