Testing load for amplifier

[desertkids]

Hi,i would like to test my own built amplifier,but i don't want connect and on my speaker for whole day to test it.(very noisy...).So i would like to use resistor to replace the speaker,so after 1 day only i connect the speaker to amplifier to see it wherever it still alive or dead. So anyone can give me idea how to built this resistor load?Or anyone got other better ideas?thanks for advice..

Here you'll find some hints:

Try to get hands on these non-inductive resistors ..
They'd be ideal for that purpose ..
