BRAND NEW Old Stock
Ex our workshop stores, our audio production business has now closed down (retired) and all the stock must find new owners
RIKENOHM resistors are well known in the audio world (now ceased production though) and we used a lot of these in output stages and cross-over networks.
These are 12 Ohm, why 12 Ohm I hear you ask ....
Most often we also used these for amplifier load testing and the value of 12 Ohms allows for a variety of "load ladders" to be made up, depending upon the resistance desired e.g 3x 12 Ohm in parallel and you have 4 Ohm, 15 Watt power dissipation or 2x for 6 Ohm @ 10W 4x for 3 Ohm @ 20W and so on. Create a nice fat 8 ohm load with say 3x 12 Ohm parallel plus another 3x 12 Ohm parallel and connect the two blocks in series for your 8 Ohm load - very flexible
