Need speakers that can rock with just one watt? You found da place.

RE: Wiring autoformer as HF attenuator

1) is generally the option Werner recommends, with a variable resistor in parallel with the primary of the autoformer. He indicates it is for "rolloff", presumably indicating that it is used for impedance compensation to control the rolloff frequency.

I have another potential alternative: I have a Dennis Had SE KT-88 amp that can use anything from a 6V6 to a KT-150 to give 5-12wpc. I also have another amp on order from him, this one a parallel SE amp that will output 15wpc with KT-88's. Depending on tubes use and the amount of attenuation needed on the 802, I may be able to run the PSE amp on the 414 and the SE amp on the 802, with a 3-5 dB difference in power between the two.
