I replaced the fuses with copper bars, and get a big improvement in the mid to high frequencies. Quick and easy, with the option of putting the fuses back if my system, for resale, or if the volume is pushed by a high volume idiot, when I am not in the room.
I disagree with neolith regarding the safety of normal fuses when the amp is driven into clipping. My tweeters were saved with normal fuses, in my early days, of high volume demos.
Since then I know I can play very loud, (but not INSANELY loud], without fuses.
