has any seen or read about distortion stats for the Raychem RXE resettable fuses -- thinking of including in a speaker incorporated amp.xovr.

Distortion

Astounding -- I measure the distortion at 30% -- I guess these would be good in a guitar fuzz circuit.

Have you and Nelson had the right fuse (not too small)? I suspect also that this PTC type fuse isn't very well suited for critical use.

I just put the fuse, by itself, on the HP339a distortion analyzer, not expecting anything like what occurred.
