I got into 3D printing fairly recently, and went down the rabbit hole of designing my own stuff, which has been a massive learning curve. A bit of back story... I recently came across four original boxes in a cupboard. Two had been chipped with the X3, one is softmodded and one has never been...

It could easily be condensed to not many lines. Any cable costing more than £10/meter, or manufactured by a company that swaps a C for a K Any fuse costing more than 50p Anything manufactured, sold or endorsed by Russ Andrews. etc.

Everybody experiences that.

Of course not, although it would be much easier to have an official 'Snake Oil' thread, containing a list of known snake oil products. It'd save people having to ask the same questions over and over, and it'd prevent a fair few arguments.

An injection of facts should always be welcomed.

It's fine over the length of a fuse but the longer the wire the greater the resistance. If you ran that 5A fuse wire the length of 1 meter mains cable it'd handle around 0.1A before melting.

Sodium cyanide does a good job dissolving gold.

Unless you're replacing a Chinesium power lead containing 2 strands of copper, it'll make zero difference. Don't be fooled into buying snake oil.

Really? Two salesmen who are trying to sell you things? They have these things on their own system? And they can't believe how amazeballs they are? Who would have thunk! I don't know if you're being serious or on a wind-up but either way... :ROFLMAO:

Yet... So, basically, you're prepared to listen to any opinion, so long as it agrees with your opinion? :ROFLMAO:

There's no such thing as audio fuses. It's more snake oil BS. A properly made cable shouldn't make any discernible difference.

I didn't try that, no. What effect do you think it might have?

Boredom has officially set in, so Photoshop has been getting a hammering.

I've tried lots of different cables. The only time I ever noticed an audible difference was when using really cheap (think 99p) or really badly made/designed cables. I've been making my own cables for 20+ years, and used lots of different types of wire, but never noticed a difference worthy of...
