In Reply to: Acme sell slo-blow ceramic fuses that are silvered at each end and cryo-treated. posted by Lew on November 2, 2020 at 18:50:12:
but I don't think standard slow blow is a substitute for the specialized extremely time delayed MDQ type the OP's Audio Research amp model specifies.
Other Audio Research models of the same era simply specify their fuses as slow blow, not MDQ specific.
I use slow blow Hi-Fi tuning in mine.
The extra internal metal structure of a specialized MDQ "super slow" fuse would probably raise the price some. Because they are not that common, I don't think any boutique brands make them.
Thanks for the tip on the Acme fuses.
Cheers!
