Agreed. The 1st job of the fuse is to protect the equipment, 2nd job is to not harm/influence sonics. Without data to show that it does the 1st and most important job, it doesn't matter if it does the 2nd job or not.

So, what's different here, besides ~2 cents versus 60 dollars price?
I have no experience with Audio Magic fuses - but I do with couple different types of Hi-Fi Tuning, and also Furutech. Yes, they do work, improving sound appreciably in resolving system. No, I did not bother to contact manufacturers to obtain data sheets.

Respected company vs. fly-by-night company. (Name alone is suspect.)

Actually, Audio Magic's been around for 16 years. If I have to wait longer than that to establish market stability...well, wait, my 8 yr old HDTV only has one DVI input! (Remember those?) Foiled again.
Old and in the way company vs state of the art company.

Hi Geoff-
Where is that quote from? Pardon my ignorance, but I only recall it being uttered in that exact form in a song from "The Catherine Wheel". A quick Google search turned up nothing on the money, but many oblique references to religious texts (mostly eastern), where most of the operative words existed, but not in that specific quote. The idea was there, just not the exact quote. Thus my query. Thanks!
(Oh yes, I still cannot believe we are arguing about whether premium fuses make a difference or not! To the nay sayers I put it thusly: They do. Get over it.)
Old and in the Way is the title of and old Jerry Garcia album.
Sorry, Geoff, I wasn't clear, obviously. I was referring instead to, "An ordinary man has no Means of deliverance". Apologies for the confusion. (It certainly sounds religious in origin.)
Thanks.
Ah, that one. That's a quote uttered by William Burroughs in the movie, Naked Lunch.
