RE: I wonder if this is just the old silver versus copper conundrum. nt

Something of that issue, surely, may well be manifest in the situation described, and in the preferences expressed at the time and operative at home today, but I would not be inclined to say the situation was that ‘conundrum’ alone. Not all occasions of substituting the AHP fuse for a HiFi-Tuning fuse have been preferred, but the majority of substitutions have resulted in the use of the AHP in preference. Pure silver wire, that is, not silver-plated copper wire, has not been comprehensively removed from the system, though the instances of use are few, with but the digital interconnect, Audio Note AN-Vx, alone ‘surviving’ among the interconnects. Someone has suggested to me that the AN-Vx on digital duty, between transport and DAC, will be improved by using a comparably priced copper digital interconnect. That may or may not prove so to us. Simple prescriptions have not worked for us. And, there is a pitfall of spending too much time testing the prescriptions, the exceptions, the permutations, etc. When I have erred in this regard, a line has been thrown and a most valuable perspective offered.
