If you are talking about actually soldering the fuses in then I would think that would be the best sounding. You talked about a dab of solder on the clip. Would that even stick? What I'm confident in is that silver conductive grease on PS contacts is a significant improvement in sound. One has to try it to see. One person at AA said it was the best tweak he (or she) had done. My guess is that included signal path connections. T456

The poster Coner did. I simply advised against it, for a similar reason to what you questioned.
The Circuit Works 7100 silver conductive grease would be something I'd be willing to try, but at over $61 per tube at Digi-Key, I'd have to see if I had other uses for it first.
I read a couple of articles on tuner refurbishing a few years ago. At least one of them suggested using silver grease on the variable capacitor's bearings (Not on the fins!). If I need silver grease for my tuners, then I'll have it to try on a fuse or two, but only on the ones in open clips. Trying to get that grease out of an enclosed fuse holder doesn't sound like a fun job to me.
Thanks for the head's up on the Circuit Works 7100.
Yo 1973, If you want to send me your address I can probably send you a sample. My grease is at someone else's house, so if he didn't lose it I'll be able to do it. I didn't realize it got so expensive. Used to be less than half of that. T456

Thank you for your offer of a dab. I appreciate that.
I'm sure the price of the conductive grease goes up as the price of silver goes up.
