I used this calculator* to get values of 3.3k for R1 and 1.5k for R2
equating to 10.1dB attenuation. Thanks for the fun project clive!

My experience, after a couple of days:
If you are using the Transporter as a line stage, running directly to
your amps, and if you need to use the XLR outputs (I do, because I need
the RCAs for the subwoofers), then the Endlers are ideal. I absolutely
cannot tell that they are in the signal

I've never seen Endlers in the flesh, but from the pictures on his

...If a fixed attenuation of about 10dB will do and you are not
confident about building your own, the Rothwells are much cheaper
(albeit still pretty expensive for what they are, IMHO).
I've not used a Transporter (yet), but I've tried both the Endlers and

Yea, single value attenuators are just a resistor network. Would you
mind posting your circuit and other info to the wiki?
I've had a hard time googling for pre-made balanced attenuators, most
of what I find is for microphone inputs.
I don't think I should post
Wow, excellent post cliveb! Thank you.
The second diagram (basic attenuation network) is called a shunt
design, correct? That is the design the Endler Attenuators uses...

It probably has many names. The most common name I've seen is L-pad,
probably because the two

Not really... a shunt is a type of network for a multi-step attenuator.
All of the different methods of multi-step attenuation (shunt,

Great post -- love seeing this kind of stuff. Of course, I can't come
near a soldering iron, but this is good information for everyone.

I don't have a Transporter, but I've used the Endler attenuators (RCA
and balanced versions) in a variety of different systems and
configurations.
You won't want to give them back to your friend after you try them.
They are that good, the sound quality is just amazing (excellent build
quality
I've been using them for my SqueezeBox directly to a Parasound Halo amp.
I have the single ended, but you may want to try the balanced version.
