I'm skeptical of the benefits provided by aftermarket fuses. C-J has advised me not to substitute fuses in my CT 5 pre amp. I tried a couple of aftermarket fuses from a well known maker of numerous tweaks and it was indistinguishable from a regular Bus from Home Depot. Anybody have a source of reasonably priced fuses so I can try without needing a loan? |

The Fuse Company in Richmond, Va. That's all they deal in. Reminds me of the Scotch Tape Store on SNL. They will not have "audiophile" fuses but everything else.

I consider my amp irreplaceable too, given that there were only 100 made. I could see me trying to explain to Nelson Pass that I was trying out a boutique fuse, and smoked my First Watt F1J. You're welcome regarding the Belleson regulator info. I admit that I haven't tried any of the other brands of "boutique" regulators, and maybe some perform better than the Belleson. I just know the level of improvement I got for $55 wasn't small. When you see what's inside your DAC, if I can be of any help, just let me know. |

Sometimes when I get too immersed in what I'm doing with my audio gear I feel peckish. |
