3 dB is a 2:1 ratio. In other words, if you cut the power in half, you just shaved off 3 dB.So if its soaking 1/2 of my wattage 3dB doesn't sound like a whole lot of attenuation???

As an attenuator, I haven't tried it yet as I figure a 3db volume reduction is not enough for a NYC apartment.
Exactly. You'll probably want to use it as a load, then put a power amp afterward, like a Fryette Power Station does.
We'll see... or there might be one up on eBay soon... LOL
Is the pimary purpose of this LB device essentially to replace the amp block on your FAS produce with a real amp head?. I get some of the concept I just don't know why. Is it for people that don't want to give up their amp or does it mostly serve a recording purpose? To be direct why does this product exist?
You're going to love it! I'm using mine thru an XL and lately I've been like "what's an amp block, again?"I just pulled the trigger on one of these, can't wait to put it through it's paces.
This might be a dumb question, but I have to ask it anyway. The unit is made for amps up to 100 watts, correct? What if I want to use it with my triple recifiers which have 150 watts? Would I fry the loadbox or would it only be a problem if I fully crank the master volume?

Leon, what other reactive load do you own?
It's a beautiful thing
Stacking them up like that certainly inspired me to plug them in. The X-Load blends in well with the aesthetics too.agreed ...and, for the first time, I am SO envious of the huge pile of amps that seem to dominate your music room......they will have all a new lease on life and relief on your ears
from this thing.
