Quite a common bodge with Hi-Fi separates as they always want the receiver/ amp, plus one (usually the tape deck). Still, I guess it's an improvement over the bare L+N shoved into the switched/ unswitched outlet(s) round the back!

Foil-wrapped speaker protection fuses are another connoisseurs' choice from the Hi-Fi underworld - complete with magic smoke guarantee or your money back!
