This question is aimed to TRUE Elec Engineers, not fuse or wire directionality believers.


Has any of you ACTUALLY worked with and recommend a SSR which does not introduce any audible distortion on the speaker line and which can operate with a large range of trigger voltages (12 - 48 VDC, may need to have on board voltage regulator for this range).  I am building a speaker DC protector and do not want to use electro mechanical relays becoz of DC arcing and contact erosion issues.  It needs to be capable of switching up to 15 amps at about 100 volts.

Only TRUE engineers reply please.

Thanks

Hope I don't get into hot water here for the link.

These could be triggered by a conventional circuit. I've used them to handle a couple kilowatts of RF. Trigger time is in the low milliseconds.
There may even be quicker ones. Contacts are vacuum sealed and very tough. There are RF types and high current DC types. Either should handle anything you can throw at them.
