I have a small pair of 2 way speaker that I just replaced the SL-1000 series speaker in. I believe they are Monitor 7's. The new speaker works great (thanks again dcmeigs) and was factory marked at 8 ohm, are these 8 ohm speakers that I can run with other 8's? Also on the back at the terminal input there is a fuse holder and fuse, what is the correct fuse to have here?

8 ohms
If there's a single fuse, it's for the tweeter, and was most likely a 1 amp fast-blo.

What do you mean by this?

Some of them are 6ohms. If they have the MW6502 they are 6ohms, any others are 8ohms.

Ben62670----not sure what the MW6502 is. Is this the crossover? Zingo----I mean run the Monitor 7's (if they are 8ohm) on channel A and another pair of 8ohm speakers on B. This is why Im concerned about the rating on the Monitor 7"s.---Thanks for the help everyone

Sorry.
MW is short for Mid Woofer. IE MW6502, MW6500, MW6600...
Pull the mid, and read the label on the back of the speaker.
