The fuse isn't an after-market mod.Yes I guess I might as well. There are only 10 and I’m in there anyway.
re the difference, that’s why I suspect one sides been swapped out at some point - along with the fact that someone’s made a very deliberate mod (the fuse) on one side only, which would make no sense.
Tony am I right, scanning the thread, that while initially the match with your Leak was poor, once you’d restored them it was good? Which setting in the Leak did you end up with?
Are you sure? I mean I know a lot aren’t.The fuse isn't an after-market mod.

The fuse isn't an after-market mod.
I suspect that one is. Certainly the fused boards I have are very different and are clearly designed to be fused (i.e. different layout, no cut tracks), not manually hacked.
You could be right but one of my pairs has the exact same fuse holders with cables running from them, I'll see if I can find a photo.
Photo added to my post above.Interesting, it may have evolved as a factory hack before the next board generation. I know a lot were going back with tweeter failures, I assume folk just playing them too loud. That was certainly the reason for the fuse being introduced. I have no idea why just one of this pair would have the hack.
Mine are gold logo, but both of Felix's units appear to be red logo (based on the style of label under the aluminium base).Yes, you are right. The holder and board drilling is identical, so it looks like an intermediate factory step. The only way I can explain the mismatched pair is maybe one blew, was repaired under warranty and received the board hack and fuse when there? I’d have thought both would have gone back though given both speakers fit in the one shipping box.
PS Are these red or gold logo? My assumption is all gold logo would have the later fused board revision, front-baffle foam and deadsheet, but I may be wrong.
They are red. But with the extra foam/ deadsheet, which I think means later ones. Serial no on one is 8881. Sticker's fallen off the other.Mine are gold logo, but both of Felix's units appear to be red logo (based on the style of label under the aluminium base).
Re the resisters - assume they are 5a rated? Does brand/ type make any difference (apologies - I can solder but I couldn't read a circuit diagram to save me life)
Tony - thank you. I know you disapprove of my modified TL12Pluses but my hope is they like these speakers and start to form a second system.
