As you are planning, one close to the Zo of your cable. If you want to be conservative chose one with a dissipation that will handle the clipping voltage of your amplifier. For most music and listeners 1/10 of that or less would be plenty. And if you go too small it will just fry with no harm done.
I've found termination resistors on speaker cables often improve the sound as they keep things from getting squirlly past the point where your tweeters unload. They also smooth out the overall in-band impedance variations a bit which might help a little.
