The actual *facts* of the matter are that, no matter what the *figures*
may or may not be, the single strand is still working perfectly well and
will obviously sustain enough current to provide a 'heap plenty loud'
(too loud) sound ....

** No one ever said otherwise.

A 5 amp fuse fitted in series with a 8 ohm speaker is not be likely to
*ever* blow in a domestic system.

Change the speaker to 4 ohms and it may well blow at some time.

No one ever said otherwise.


** Fraid you did above - ****HEAD !!


Change the speakers to Quad ESL63s ( et alia ) and it will blow for
RE - if the internal voltage clamping circuitry ever activates.


No one ever said otherwise.


** Fraid you did above - ****HEAD !!

Whether a single strand of copper wire survives in use DEPENDS on what
impedance and type of speaker it is feeding plus the power capacity of the
amplifier.

Some of us KNOW a few things about fuses.

You PIG IGNORANT ****HEAD !!!!!!!!!!
