My favorite line is: "Audio Magic uses Beeswax instead of the normal anti vibration fluid, this gives the fuse a very organic flavor..." LOL
Taken from the website, below:
"Brand new, just released - Audio Magic latest fuse in the Premiere line - The "Beeswax" Premiere Super Fuse. The Beeswax version is identical to the Premiere version the only difference is Audio Magic uses Beeswax instead of the normal anti vibration fluid, this gives the fuse a very organic flavor but maintains the detail, dynamics and everything the Premier does. The production of this fuse is very difficult, very hard to get the Beeswax into the fuse but the organic sound is too good to ignore.
Audio Magic Premiere SUPER fuse:
The Audio Magic Premiere SUPER fuse incorporates Audio Magic's anti vibration fluid to stop the element from vibrating at 50/60 hz and then the blackout powder super mix to absorb all EMI and RFI riding the element as well as ambient sources and insert a new HRC core which allows the signal to travel through the fuse in a more cohesive and linear manner. The Premier SUPER fuse is 30% better than the Audio Magic's original SUPER fuse in every way!
Much more detail top to bottom, wider and deeper soundstage, much better inner detail, layering, and a lot more air around instruments and voices."

Valid point if I were in the habit of eating fuses.Otherwise a steaming pile of BS which I suspect also would have a 'very organic flavor'.

Exactly what "signal" is "traveling" thru the fuse? From what I know about electricity (BSEE, BTW) there is NO signal passing thru the fuse, only 120v AC.
This smacks of snake oil in its purest form. You'd have to be out of your mind to pay $175 for this product. *Maybe* $1.75....

It would seem pretty clear that they're implying the use of these things as speaker fuses in the quote you posted.
And since my speakers aren't fused, I just saved myself $350!

Most everyone who has "experience" with these seems to be using them in electronics, not speakers. So, pray tell, what signal is traversing a fuse in such an application?

Which doesn't include me.
Once, just for gits and shiggles, I tried wrapping the glass body of an amp's AC fuse in Teflon plumbers tape, based on some posts in Tweakers.
I didn't hear a damn bit of difference.

What's really a bummer is if one of these fuses were to blow............
...Guess this is another case of "no cost is too great when in service of the music". I wonder if these "tweaked" fuses carry a UL listing. Bet not.
are as unfamiliar with a UL listing as Northern California is with steady rain.
Power cords immediately spring to mind.
