Attenuators?

Post by Slammintone » Tue Oct 11, 2005 4:46 pm

Is anyone using any sort of power attenuator on their JTMs here? If so what are you using and what kind of results are you getting? Thanks!

I'm using a Weber MASS or THD Hotplate (I own both). I like the feel of the Mass more; the THD makes the amp a little stiffer. Both keep the basic amp tone as long as you stay in the upper 3rd of the attenuation, then the tone changes a little with both.

I had both as well. Then sold and lost them. Now I just have a MASS 150 which I really like. I also prefered the tone of the MASS to the THD. You probably want a MASS 150 for a 100W tho. MASS100 for a 50.
