0.5 Ohm Resistor

The standard “go to” resistor in your speaker building arsenal is the 10 watt ceramic type.  These are inexpensive enough to have a few extra on hand for experimentation and work well for entry level designs.

To read the value printed on the resistor, Sometimes the decimal is replaced by an “R”  – the small print of a decimal is too small to read. For example, a 3.3 ohm value may be printed 3R3
