TELOS Quantum X2 Audiophile Fuse (6.3x32mm)
The better audiophile fuse just got way better...astonishing performance!
Please note: Telos audiophile fuses are Slow Blow, as indicated by the 'T' prefix (eg T6.3A). They are not interchangeable with Fast Blow fuses ('F'prefix).
With Quantum X2, you are able to hear extreme music resolution and livelier music atmosphere with a darker music background.
Expect greater bandwidth and finer details. Telos design and research team rolls out a new process to produce Quantum X2. The new Quantum X2 will enable you to experience an improvement to sonic performance compared to conventional fuses. It allows you to enjoy the correct and precise characteristic of your equipment with finer details and enriched musical emotions. With Quantum X2, it will unleash the full potential of your equipment.

The process of producing Quantum X2 fuses is very important and every step cannot be disregarded. Every Quantum X2 fuse undergoes:
-196ºC cryo process to achieve maximum stress relief of the highest requirement caused by soldering and molecular sequence alloy conductor distribution during production of fuse. Quantum X2 fuses are cryoed twice at -196ºC under precise controlled environment (with a resting period of 12 hours in between).
The Quantum X2 are all run in using Telos 3rd generation Quantum Burning Technology (QBT) which has a frequency response of 0-100khz. The Quantum X2 fuses are run in with 27V, 0.8A, 70 watts power module continuously at broadband width signals to optimize its fuse conductor. This process enables stability in transmission of power.

Telos Quantum X2 also uses the in-house developed special red stickers. Every Quantum X2 red sticker contains patented formula infra-red powder (which undergoes 36 hours of cryogenic process at -196oC), patented formula negative ion powder, titanium dioxide photocatalyst materials, silica wafer insulation coating material, pentoxide antistatic agent material, calcium oxide CAO desiccant material, zironia filter material and alumina structural ceramic material. Official test reports from SGS proves that Quantum X2 exclusive formula is not harmful to humans as it is unleaded and free from highly polluted elements.
In conclusion, Quantum X2 possesses the most exclusive scientific formula from TELOS and has the highest dynamic contrast amongst TELOS products. It has 50% larger dynamic bandwidth than current QBT-18 fuses and also incorporates specially formulated far-infrared, anion powder and physical elements. With Quantum X2, you are able to hear extreme music resolution and livelier music atmosphere with a darker music background. Be it the source, preamp or power amplifier, the performance will be enhanced to a level you could never have imagined.
Please Note:
Telos Quantum X2 fuses are directional. If, after installing a Quantum X2 fuse you don't hear an immediate and substantial improvement in sound quality, turn the fuse 180 degrees.

"WOW !!!
Peter, I would just like to thank you for the friendly, non pushy advice you gave which led me to purchasing your Telos Quantum X2 fuse for my amplifier.
Like most audiophiles I enjoy upgrading and tweaking with my system and any associated improvements which are made.
Of relevance, has been my progressive upgrading of all my AC power/cords and interconnectors over the years. Sometimes a noticeable improvement, other times perhaps perceived. Each change has always been justified by my assumption that I am always increasing the overall synergy of my system.
The addition of the Telos fuse has proven to be the missing link, my system has now been taken to a whole new level !! I feel the synergy of my system has been completed. Compared to the overall cost of the above, this fuse represents the "Best bang for your Buck" by far.
In the near future I will be trying the Telos Quantum stickers; after I get used to this new level of audio Bliss.
Thanks again Peter - Brilliant"

"Hello Peter
thought would e mail my thoughts on my experience with the Telos X2 fuse installed in my hand made $1200 Dac.My reference CD player is a Wadia which I purchased twelve years ago and cost $7500.Once the fuse was installed the resolution in the mids and highs were outstanding,including a better focus in the soundstage.The bass improved a little but I think this is trait of the Dac not the fuse doing its function.Compared to my reference CD player before the installation of the fuse the difference was quite audible however once the fuse was installed the resolution in the highs and mids are on par with my reference.
I have no hesitation in recommending the Telos X2 fuse or Peter's advice on fuses."

"Hi Peter,
I received the Telos fuses yesterday,
I put one Telos fuse into the Live fuse holder, turned on the power and then listen to my audio system: the room was filled with the music (bigger sound stage), vocal voices were fuller and more real and that were the same for instruments... I could hear a tiny more details here and there from my fav tracks. Back ground is darker, bass is cleaner and weighty, treble is more silky...
I then install the second telos fuse into the Neutral fuse holder and the sound quality is even better, not as twice of the level of sonic improvement but I gave it 0.5 compared to the Live fuse.
To sum it up, replacing the cheap stock fuse with audio graded fuse is a MUST and it makes sense in conjunction with power cables, power conditioning upgrades as well as system isolation tweaks...
Now with the fuses in place, I feel like the music has more soul when coming out of my system giving me more emotion and more connect with the artists and the bands as a listener, take me closer to the promised audio land ??
Thanks Peter,
Vinnie."
