It has a filament like a bulb, here is a link to something similar...

The bulb in my crossovers appear to be a lightbulb that has a filimant much like what is in auto tail light bulbs, but shaped like what is in the link.

From the design, I figure that it must be wired in series and limits the current by becoming more resistant as the power increases... I understand that audibly this compresses dynamics as you get louder and use more power.

I am not worried about over-current problems and I don't run them near loud enough for the protection to matter, I want to know if it is safe to bypass it by way of bridging the terminals. That is, if it is indeed wired in series.

I don't know for sure, that is why I am asking.
