Just curious about these - how were they used? All that is known is they
came from an audio lab.
About 200 watt, 2.8 ohm vitreous resistors. 200watt estimated, by me, from
surface area scaling of 2.5 and 6W ones, these are 210 mm long 35mm
diameter. Some sort of multiple series and parallel for 2 ohm etc or with L
and C for speaker simulation ?

the ones I used were just large (hundreds of watts) ceramic wirewound
resistor mounted in heatsinks. They had to have been 8 ohms or something
really close as to not blow up 1970s and 1980s equipment.

you could hear the music though them if you got close enough.
