Far from a fan but plenty those boys would have some amount of hangers on. Family being a whole different ball game obvs.
Its a wonder theres not more blackmail/kidnappings with the figures involved these days

Edit: no evidence that Souness is involved. Yet....

I know that an awful lot of Hi-Fi buffs tend to fall for varying amounts of snake oil, but seriously - £155 for a 13 Amp plug fuse?

Talk about a load of shite in the item description.

Synergistic Research's Orange range of fuses are their latest and greatest breakthrough. Synergistic Fuses are available as both 'Fast-blow' and 'Slow-blow' options and are designed for a wide range of Hi-Fi and AV equipment. The Fast-blow fuses are most commonly found in everyday electronic equipment. They are less tolerant to high current passing through, meaning the fuse will blow easier but it will protect your equipment in the process. Fast-blow fuses should be used where the equipment is sensitive to the flow of electricity, allowing a prompt reaction to any surges in order to protect your equipment. For example, a Fast-blow fuse can be used in Pre-Amps, DACs and TVs. When installing your new fuse, please ensure you test the fuse in both directions as they are directional from left to right. When the fuse is inserted in the correct direction, it is designed to sound more detailed.

The new ORANGE Quantum Fuse is a direct result of technology Synergistic Research first developed for their Limited Edition Galileo SX PowerCell. At its core are new UEF Technologies and a completely new multi-stage high voltage treatment process for the lowest noise floor of any fuse they have ever manufactured. In fact, ORANGE is by far the most significant leap in performance across five fuse generations. Subjective improvements include better timbral accuracy where separate instruments and voices take on a new degree of life-like realism. Other benefits over prior SR fuses include a larger soundstage with greater depth, width, and front-to-back layering. Musicality or the presence of increased detail without a hint of fatigue is off the charts for extended listening that is never harsh despite being their highest resolution fuse to date.

So if laoislad is reading this, any thoughts? 

A good thick bolt would suffice

I'm completely lost. How does a fuse affect the noise a speaker makes?

A fuse is only there to protect equipment, I dunno how it could possibly affect the sound.
People buying these are probably the same who spend €100 on a HDMI lead when a €5 one from Dealz will do exactly the same job.

Thats what I thought. There are a load of 5 star reviews on there who swear it's improved the quality. Some people just have too much money.
