so last night my boy noticed that there was a glow coming from my right-rear sail panel inmy blazer. it was coming from about a foot below the component speaker. i didnt get to check it out too much cause i was ****ing trashed, and i still havent checked it out today. but i noticed that the speaker still playes when it glows. so that made me think its not a whort in the speaker wire. could it have something to do with the x-over? anybody seen something like this b4? btw, it only glows at high volumes

crossovers that have fuses/lightbulbs things in them, glow.

some speaker manufactures install led type bulb behind their speakers to inform the user that its close to the speakers limits. I've only seen them in enclosed speaker boxes and with clear cones. Norman Labs and Marantz have used them
