Thank you for bring this to everyone's attention. I think I will load up at various sizes for $2.50 CDN each. I haven't tried orientation, but I only have a half hour on them in all my gear. Bass is very strong...details are more delicate. But going through the orientation will be annoying as I will have to rely on feelings and aural memory <br /><br />Very nice fuses for the price!! It's the cheapest upgrade anyone can make that is readily noticeable. newkbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10351704528194778545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-684396141123606281.post-24695176046271527182021-03-29T13:42:45.873-07:002021-03-29T13:42:45.873-07:00@Nobody,

While I can immediately hear a difference, it also lost some depth in the soundstage. The factory glass tube fuse to my surprise was also a Schurter (in a Parasound A21). <br /><br />If the fuse opens up after burn in, I’ll be listening extra hours then!Nobodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04246853775953979747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-684396141123606281.post-59766173073884417492016-03-05T13:30:39.848-08:002016-03-05T13:30:39.848-08:00Hi eric

You highly assessed "Super Cryo Fuse", but I can't find it to order for myself. I turned upside down whole internet, but still can't find them. Can you please give me advice, where I can buy it?
