RE: So these upgraded FURUTECH fuses....

Posted by Constrained 1 on May 10, 2011 at 14:15:08:
I can tell you from personal experience that the Furutech fuses are one of the few fuses that are really worth the money. I have a specially made fuse in my CD player sold by Littelfuse. It is a new series that has an orange ceramic body and either gold or rhodium plated end caps. They are specifically made for "medical and audio equipment", so says the website. As good as they are, they don't hold a candle to the sonic difference that the Furutechs make in a system. There is a lot more to the Furutech than meets the eye... However, they remain somewhat secretive about what they use to actually build the fuse. They do mention: a ceramic body, rhodium plating, cryogenic treatment, internal damping, etc. I know that they are expensive, but you would have to pay far more for the sonic difference that they make. Also, even though I am in the audio industry, I am not affiliated with Furutech.
