I know you want online, but frankly, the easiest is to find a local radio shack and they will find you the fuse replacement. I did this with my Klipsch computer speakers several times.

You know that you can use something greater than 125v right? I see a 250v fuse on radioshack's website that would work.

Someone who knows what they're talking about should correct me, but that's BS. Sounds like they're saying what they have to, to cover their ass in case you do something stupid and try to make a warranty claim.

Minimum order of 100. I hope you have a lot of speakers that need a replacement.


Or try here to only purchase one....

Step 1: Remove head from ass
Step 2: Listen

A college level physics course would've told you that a >125V fuse would still work for your 125V application...

Wiki sez: Voltage rating The voltage rating of a fuse should always be greater than or equal to the circuit voltage.

Ebay, i dont know why you need a 4A fuse because mine only use a 2A slow blow (time delayed) fuse. They are common as muck on ebay.

Littlefuse is the brand....but they usually only sell in bulk because they are mainly used in industrial applications (they are big on class J fuses).

If you googled all that...you will not find it. just google Littlefuse 239

http://www.littelfuse.com/series/239.html

You can easly cross reference to another brand. Go to radioshack and find one with the same spec.
