Just a note about Taiwanese consumer safety guidelines (see link below). They have a comprehensive, mandatory system of compliance that involves conformity to international standards. Folks who think Taiwan might be some sort of Third World backwater nation should think again. I have no problem using a Taiwanese silver alloy wire fuse rather than worrying about choosing a Bussmann or Littelfuse product for peace of mind. That said, freedom of choice tends to be a good thing, with a number of viable options to consider based on personalized criteria of safety and sound quality.
