   There is a notion that some people have, certanly it can   
   be found here, that all technical opinions are created   
   equal. In a word, that notion is nonsense. Physical   
   reality has a way of quickly and unambiguously unqualizing   
   technical opinions.   
      
   Now, really and truly, I have designed hundreds of networks   
   and have examined thousands more. What people have been   
   speculating here about fusible resistors simply has not   
   appeared in all the data regarding crossovers that I have   
   examined.   
      
   Further I was a B&W service agent for a number of years   
   and can atest to the fact that not a single B&W crossover   
   or schematic that I encountered made mention of such.   
      
   That's my technical opinion, backed by 30+ years of direct   
   experience in the field.   
      
   If someone has a different opinion and a different   
   conclusion based on extensive experience, let them come   
   forth and present the evidence.   
      
   But, no offense Guy25, the notion of a valid technical   
   relativism just because "everybody have different understand"   
   is invalid.   
      
   There are opinions, which everybody gets to have, and there   
   are informed technical opinions, which came to be via a very   
   different process. The physical world doesn't give two wits   
   about anyone's opinions.
