I think the negative effect on sound quality of using a fuse is way over-stated, most often on this website. I am not saying there is NO effect; I am saying that the effect is small and worth tolerating for the peace of mind that comes with using a proper fuse when and where necessary. But that's just my 2 cents.
On the Threshold, it was no big deal. The speaker wire ends very briefly touched each other, shorting hot to ground. That can have disastrous consequences if there is no fuse on the rail. In this case, no problem, except I needed to replace that one fuse.
