Jun 12, 2018· Ultimate Attenuator is re-amping so a different method, but clearly for my uses the best at retaining the natural amp sound over a greater range of attenuation. I've had it probably 20 years and still use it. It attenuates via a continuous pot so no preset increments. It came with a bright switch which I don't use.Rather than a purely resistive load like many of the other power attenuators on the market, the Rock Crusher ensures that the amplifier and speaker see each other in a proper relationship of impedance and inductive/capacitive reactance. This translates to a superior tone, regardless of level. To enhance tonal balance, warmth, and shimmer, at ...

Pawel and Kris took on the challenge to make a Plexi sound good at bedroom levels and tried seven attenuators in total! We concentrated on the two most commo...Jan 21, 2015· Yes the Ultimate reamps the signal so it is basically a load box reamp setup, not quite a attenuator like the Rivera. Yes when lowering the input voltage directly will lower the Plate Voltage to your preamp and power tube causing them to distort sooner, 110ACV to 100ACV you may not hear that much difference and the amp will sag slightly.

Jan 16, 2018· It's expensive sure, but it's more fully featured than a Rock Crusher. However, if you don't need that sort of feature-set (2-16 ohms, 2 means of EQ on the attenuator), get something that is less expensive, unless you don't care. Just know that the Power Station is a tube amp, so …Rather than a purely resistive load like many of the other power attenuators on the market, the Rock Crusher ensures that the amplifier and speaker see each other in a proper relationship of impedance and inductive/capacitive reactance. This translates to a superior tone, regardless of level. To enhance tonal balance, warmth, and shimmer, there ...

Jan 13, 2015· Rivera Rock Crusher is apparently the attenuator to beat. On the side, if there is ONE amp that doesn't work with an attenuator, & sounds like crap through one, it's the Fender Super Reverb. You buy an attenuator to tame a marshall. You buy a tube screamer if you must have dirt through a Super.Used. Rivera. Rockcrusher Power Attenuator. (48 Contigous U.S. States) FREE. Gear returned in mint condition.

Apr 24, 2021· I have rock crusher, aracom (for variable ohm loads) and Kelley. All work fine. Bought the rock crusher new but the others used. Wouldn't have bought the Kelley but was cheap when I bought the amp. in the end there is nothing like a loud, cranked amp. But I can't do that much w tinnitus and other beings about. So all have some compromises.Feb 28, 2021· Both the Reducer and the Scholz aren't capable of bringing the awesome power of an OR120 or an AC50 down to bedroom levels whilst leaving the sound just as good. Either of them, though, can shave off 3 or 6dB and still sound fairly similar to the direct sound.

Apr 06, 2011· Meh. Nothing really new, just a new attenuator to enter the market. It's a bit funny the claim he made about the Rock Crusher being the only switchable impedance attenuator on the market today. He obviously didn't research the Aracom or Faustine attenuators. Another thing he mentioned about an impedance mismatch with an 8 ohm…Sep 24, 2015· annapolis maryland. I have the Rivera rockcrusher. It is an excellent attenuator. Highly recommended. It is not cheap though. I had a ultimate attenuator.

Finland Rock Crusher Attenuator.

Interestingly enough, the Power Soak did …

May 10, 2019· I'll vouch for my Rivera Rock Crusher attenuator: Nice gadgetry that works extremely well. $500 new, though. The Fryette Power Station is the ultimate for a couple hundred more, IMO. Not only does it excel at power attenuation, it's also capable of taking a 5 watt Champ and turning it into a 50 watt ear-splitting monster...Jan 04, 2016· Jan 4, 2016. #16. I've tried a Hotplate, Ultimate Attenuator, and have owned an Aracom, Faustine Phantom, and now the Radial Headload. All were great at knocking down the volume of my 100 watt amps. However, I find the Radial to be the most well-built, transparent, and versatile tool for my needs.

Alex attenuator - 8 ohm. This is the BEST attenuator made. Only the Aracom rivals it. I've tried them all. For example, way better than a Rivera Rock Crusher. Alex of The Gear Page Forum used to build these. Scumback Speakers now makes it and call its the DBL ($469 plus $25 shipping). Has a Line Out. I sold my Marshall 50w and don't need it ...Dec 11, 2013· The Ultimate attenuator is a load box and power amp, and if you set the level all the way up and switch it in and out, it sounds identical, proving that the attenuated sound matches the raw tone. Switch it back in and turn the level down though, and it gets softer and fizzier at low levels and loses punch. That's not the attenuator doing that.
