I ran a amplifier via a fuse on the speaker and while the audio was loud it
wasn't as loud as it should be, I took the fuse out (soldered over it) and
the sound was much greater. For testing I also was running the mains input
via a 2A variac (which I also took out). The speaker fuse was a regular
1.25" 2A and Variac was a small 2A type. Current was the mains was just over
1A so I don't think the Variac was causing problems there... Which leaves
the fuse limiting the power ?! I did manage to blow the fuse so power in
watts must have been over 200watts....
Anyway, has anyone heard of strange things as fuses limiting audio power ? I
seem to recall reading a article a while ago that fuses on speakers was a
bad idea or something... Also I recall seeing speaker fuses listed *as*
speaker fuses... I wonder if they actually have to be a special type...
anyone come across anything like this ?
