They must be terrible compared to the more expensive ones.
That's the heart of the problem.
There's not many of them, but a minority group of brainwashed souls are inflicting harm on other innocents.
To think that someone proudly has a fuse as part of their signature, truly beggars belief.
I'd laugh if this product uses a 42p fuse....

Unfortunately, anything with words like Quantum, immediately sound like foo.I'd laugh if this product uses a 42p fuse....

I’m not sure why it would need a fuse, when the supply will be fused as will each item plugged in (in the UK at least). But sure enough, the spec says Fuse: Yes, so who knows?

Could be said to be good value, compared to a 4 grand fuse…I'd laugh if this product uses a 42p fuse....

I have an 8 way Belkin with surge protection, for headphone amp and PC.

And that's probably all you will need. The problem with surge protection is how do you know if it has worked?? 🙂
I've got surge protection in my mains in switchboard in my garage, it works pretty well judging by the times I've tried and failed to electrocute myself accidentally.

When the protector, a little internal VDR (Voltage Dependent Resistor) looks like one of those apples on The Golden Shot that had taken a direct hit 💥
There is.
It raises an interesting concept; given that gold is a traditional way of capturing and storing wealth, rather than just have your pile of gold bars sat doing nothing in a vault somewhere, why not fabricate some of the finest audiophile hardware out of pure gold. This truly is a great examples of sweating your assets.

Let's hope not. Gold may be valuable, but it tends to look pretty tacky and Blinglish to me.
I did once polish the metal caps of my locally made Bussmann fuses with some Duraglit. They looked like a Million Dollars....

In their description there are two words that would probably prevent them being done for fraud in a court case:
'The Gold fuse is the pinnacle of our current offering from QSA. At the very top of the range, we believe that it can deliver upgrades to your sonic experience that can match far more expensive cables and equipment'
But, if they did genuinely believe it could bring more benefit than £8,000 worth of equipment....who'd want to buy anything from such a retailer?
