    I'm Gary.

    Aye....a wee bit salty, helps if I think of it as a sound upgrade rather than 'just a fuse'
    I've spent a lot more on upgrades and had much less improvement in the past?
    the power regulation on my kits pretty good, so no massive current swings and hopefully nothing goes bang.

    Was sceptical, but a few 'common sense' guys I respect the opinions of on some of the American high end forums were raving about them.
    A 30 day return period made me take a punt.
    As always I dont pretend to know everything and just let my ears be the judge.

    Helluva upgrade peeps.
