I've been reading about after market fuses being used in CD players among other things and was wondering if our Lumin products could benefit from them? I don't really know if they even have fuses in them.
 
Hmmm...where might the fuse be?

If you go inside, don't you void the warranty?

From the Lumin US distributor's website:

Lumin in the USA or Source Systems, Ltd, in the USA will not service product under warranty that have been opened by end-users, modified or altered. Modifying products immediately voids all warranties from Lumin in the USA.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON MODIFIED PRODUCTS!
Products modified (or “Modded”) by third party companies render Lumin products unserviceable by us.
Modifying products immediately voids all warranties from Lumin in the USA. More importantly, since we do not know what these “mods” are, how they affect other circuits within the Lumin product and most importantly, affect the timing and control functions within the product, we are not able, at any cost, to repair a modified Lumin product. Modified products should be returned to the modifier or upon prior approval, the overseas factory for service if and only if there is direct factory approval for such return.
 
For X1, T2, S1, D2, U1, U1 MINI you can find the fuse at the back of the unit/power supply right next to the IEC socket.

How about for the D2? What type of fuse does it use? Out of curiosity does changing fuse make a big improvement on sound quality?
 
5x20mm.

It'll be functional, as for whether it is less protective in case of surge, I don't have the expertise to answer that.
 
Hi peter,

any experience with after market fuses like SR blue, etc? Do that make a difference to the already great PS. FYI, I am using the X1 PS for my U1.

thanks

I put a Blue fuse in my Lumin U1 power supply (within the past year) and noticed a difference right away vs. the standard fuse. I have not tried any other fuses.
