Wonder if anyone can help, I (stupidly) plugged in a set of US
speakers into a socket in Australia. They worked for a few minutes
then died. Have I stuffed them altogether or just blown a fuse?
Appreciate any advice.

Thanks,
Danny

Probably burned out the primary of the power transformer, if you know a
bit about electronics you should be able to find a suitable substitute,
something that even has the correct 240V primary even.

How? The Aussie socket is a US 240 volt socket.

Maybe. Ask around for a local repair guy.

open them and find out. Or if you dont know to open them and find out
whats wrong, maybe best leave them alone.

Whats the time/value ratio for pc speakers?

If you use a multimeter you should be able to find out whats going on
where.
