Hey, are these a good idea? Are they known to colour the sound?

Should you pick a 300w breaker for a 300RMS/600WMusic speaker like the HL10a?

They don't work, tripping either too early or too late. Having a limiter in your rack is a must.

Ah, that's why no one is talking about them.. okay. I do have a limiter in my electronic crossover (DBX Driverack), was thinking of building in more protection just in case. I guess you can never make speakers entirely idiot proof.
