How about a pair of resistor in an can of oil as a dummy load. Built a "L" pad for 15 dB loss and 200W power rating. 8 ohm resistor in parallel with the speaker, and a 25 ohm in series with the two comes out to about 15 dB loss which is 3 W out with 100 W in. -- Philip _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
