That's already been done by most of us, Paul, and improvements were heard, as one would expect. However, some of the 'audiophile fuses' we've tried take things a step further sonically.
All fair point you've made above, and it's always good for someone to add some balance, in a polite and constructive way.
However, when I tried the Hi-Fi Tuning fuses some years ago, I tested them thoroughly, over a period of weeks, using them, then taking them out and going back standard fuses (returning to a known reference, IME, always reveals when something 'works' or not - and every time I returned to using standard fuses, the sound quality of my system took a dip, simply in terms of a *slight* graininess/opaque quality being superimposed over proceedings, which was absent with the HFT fuses in circuit.
After the results of said testing were (for me) conclusive, it was enough to make me buy some more to use elsewhere, and I've been using them happily in my system ever since. Whilst I appreciate that the science behind these fuses is dodgy, and wouldn't attempt to make any claims to the contrary, in the final analysis I'm happy to trust my ears, after satisfying my own judgment criteria, as indeed I do with everything else I choose to use in my system
