Threw in the SR Purple fuse last night, and with just 12 hours of burn in, I am already a believer. Worth every penny, and it's not even burned in yet. The background went completely black, and I already am noticing an overall improvement with staging, detail and imaging.

I am happy to attest that this sigil will make your chosen fuse sound better and last longer, maybe even better and longer enough. 😀

Everyone knows the devil makes all music sound better

as it is right now looks like I'll be going with the HiFi Supreme's for both my amps

local store also has the HiFi Silver Stars on clearance, so debating that vs supreme (both are silver, supreme just the newer product line), but for sure might get 1 for my Bifrost cuz **** it it's $20

It will also turn your GE tubes into GEC / Marconi / Osram tubes…👹

Whoa. Let's not get ahead of ourselves. I say we withhold judgement until Amir at ASR measures and weighs-in on Audiophile Fuses. :smirk:
It isn’t enough for the obvious to be obvious - it has to be measured to the point of not being obvious 🤔🤪

…ASR…(Asses Slicing Reality)

You trying to summon static interference demons? That's how you summon static interference demons.
Tubes with Devil getters are always better than tubes with angel Halo getters…👹👍😇 👎

Opened properly, Yog Sothoth is anything but static. Anything at all. 🤪🤪🤪

That left fuse is a 6.3x32mm (large) fuse. It is Fast and is 1 Ampere. Schiit must have changed fuse parametres when going from V1 to V2: the fuse in V2 is definitely the 5x20mm (small) type and is Timed. [You mentioned that your Valhalla was 10+ years old].

hey dude about this, so (fingers crossed im worried about nothing since i already paid) but I was reading how slow blow fuses are coiled and fast more of a straight element.

Then I went down a rabbit hole till i found a post here of one

"LF" engraving apparently means the brand, LittleFuse. The one in the thread says LF.T so it's a slow, but mine has no T or F, and actually looks like this product listing

soooo should i be frantically emailing/calling to change the order?


EDIT: Okay the other marking is 313

It is still 1A. Change order to ‘Timed’ from ‘Fast’. Being a ‘Timed’ in your V1 would be consistent with being a ‘Timed’ in V2.

1A, but in a tube amp would that not have high odds the fuse will blow?

Fuses act as protection against surges in current. A ‘fast’ 1A fuse will blow the instant the current through it exceeds 1 ampere. A ‘slow / timed’ 1A fuse will blow when the current through it has exceeded an average of 1 ampere for a period of time.
