I think DIY home audio builders might know more about what i'm asking than most.

I've incorporated a light bulb on my custom made passive xo, that was previously on my rockford xo's as an optical compression tweeter protection. However, it doesn't seem to show any sign of light however loud I turn it up.

Thing is, the bulb is on the +. Should it be on the negative, as I read from one or two places? Also, how would one go about choosing what wattage the bulb should be?

Last, should the bulb be before or after the xo section, before after L-pad, zobel for the protection to have the least amount of affect on sound?
