FWIW In the power amp I was referring to, I've used one for 20+ years, and
a second for about 10 years, with no fuse failures.


I was always taught that a transistor was an expensive device designed
to protect a fuse..

My first proper transistor amplifier (I don't count the Sinclair
Z-12)was a 30 watt design published in (I think) Practical Electronics
which had a stabilised power supply in which the series regulator
transistor would blow to protect the fuse.
