That is a good idea. 

I know my old MGIIB's sound better every few years replacing the fuses and cleaning contacts.

Rich, what are you using to clean contacts? I'm attaching a PDF of what is supposedly best, but I cannot order this unless in bulk (i.e. I cannot find it retail).

Thanks.

HAL:
I use Caig Deoxit for contact cleaning.  There is also Deoxit Gold for those contacts.  Used it for many years and very happy with it.

One or two cans will probably last me a lifetime for contact cleaning.  Easy to find.

I've used this for lots of things in different diameters.  Good stuff.

General disclaimer:  Bypass fuses at your own risk.  Be smart.  Enjoy the music!

HAL:
Dave,
Understand.

I will start with the tweeter fuse and see how it goes.  Should be easy to see what it can take. 

More worried about power off transients if I forget to first turn off the amps.  I need a timer startup system like Parasound has in the JC preamp and JC poweramps.  The Starkrimson Ultra DIY 250W modules have 12V triggers for power up/down.  On the list of things to do.  Until then a line strip with a switch. :o
