HI, Just inherited a pair of original Model 10s, but they don't have the fuses. I need to know what fuse size for both the LF and HF. Thanks!

    My speakers had 1amp 250v fast-blo for tweeters.
    I can only guess at what the woofer would be, I'll let others help with that.

    Do yours look like this? If so, apparently it is 2.5A for the Low:

    Oh, so would the voltage be the same for the LF? 250V? Thanks.

    Fuses protect against over current, not voltage, so as long as the voltage rating is as high or higher than the application voltage you will be fine.

    In this case, 125V fuse would be just fine as well.
