Dr. Z Reactive Reducer Attenuator
Dr. Z Reactive Reducer Attenuator Reviews
Few things are as rewarding to a guitarist as cranking up an amplifier and rocking out. Unfortunately, noise ordinances are a reality. That’s why you need the Dr. Z Reactive Reducer. Boasting three levels of reduction, this top-caliber attenuator not only lowers your output, but it also retains the tactile sensation and dynamic response of red-hot tubes pushed to the brink. Additionally, the Reducer Attenuator features an inductive-coil reactive load tailored to the frequency plot of a guitar speaker, ensuring an interactive experience on par with playing through a real-world cabinet. You’ll appreciate the straightforward simplicity of the Reactive Reducer, as it enables you to dial down your volume or bypass the attenuator with a simple flip of a switch — zero complicated features to get in your way (or mess with your tone!). Optimized for 8-ohm speaker loads, but able to accommodate 4- and 16-ohm configurations, the Z Reactive Reducer enables you to enjoy wide-open tones at neighbor-friendly volumes without sacrificing the tube-fueled feel, response, or character of your favorite guitar amp.

The only thing you lose is volume
I bought this to allow me to heat the power tubes on my Orange OR-15 without endangering my liberty or marriage playing at home This is so simple, cable the amp to reactive reducer to speaker. I tested initially at 16 ohms. I dimed the master volume, dialed in preamp a the edge of break up, and set it on its highest level of attenuation. Sounds the same as bypass, except not as loud. The amp lost none of its reactivity at all. Play soft for clean, pick harder for scream.
