PA-100 Power Attenuator : Great bang for the buck

This attenuator is good and cheap choice when you want to bring your overpowered tube amp to life at bedroom sound levels. You can not crank a 100 W tube head up that much, but just enough to make the amp actually sound like it's supposed to sound like. It really makes my Bugera 6262 sound great without annoying my neighbours too much.

My only complaint about the unit so far is that you start losing high frequencies if you go below 9 o'clock on SPK level. This is however something that is to be expected from this kind of load at this price point. I haven't noticed any deterioration in sound quality above that level, which is very nice.

So if you have a big tube head at home that sounds too muddy, buying this unit will clear its sound out and make it usable at home levels. I do not have experience from gigging/band practice with it, so I can only talk about using it at home.
