So, I'm going to put together a boom box and I'm wondering if I need to have an in-line fuse. I'm using a Sure 15x2 amp with the Sure bluetooth module and 2 Dayton ND90's. I'll be using a 12v power supply brick. Do I need to add a fuse?

Boom box fuse?

It could not hurt. The fuse needs to match the amperage of the AC adapter. I put one on every boom box I make."A dirty shop is an unsafe shop, if you injure yourself in a clean shop you are just stupid" - Coach Kupchinsky

Short out your battery for a few min and see what happens ;) Then go back in time and provide a fuse as close to the battery terminal as possible."I just use off the shelf textbook filters designed for a resistor of 8 ohms with

This one is my personal favorite. It uses a GMA 5x20mm fuse so it keeps it small and has little depth. It also allows accessibility from the outside if you are using a dish as well.
