Title: 100K vs 50K 'ladder style' attenuator for SEX ...
Post by: audiblesoundwave on November 20, 2009, 02:04:45 PM

Hi,

Does 50K attenuator reduce anything for the SEX amp (i.e. lower the input sensitivity)?  Any impact on the sound?

Thanks,
Milton

It wil have no effect on the amp. It will present a more difficult load for whatever is driving the amp, but 50K is still quite large - that is the minimum load impedance for the Seduction, though it will drive down to 15K if necessary without discernible loss.
