I've got a weber mass-200 with what seems to be a speaker coil inside. It does work better than any attentuator I've used, and I really like the treble control and the line out on it. Only thing is it has a wiper on it for the attenuation pot that feels terrible.I don't use it, but for what it does it served me well, so I've been feeling abject to selling it. That said...

I'd love to hear a comparison review between that and the Rivera one. Been thinking about picking one of these two up and the 200's price point is WAY more appealing.Actually that one has managed to elude me. I haven t ever had the chance to try one of those.

THANKS!Weber 200 seems like a good option.DIY is up my alley, but im nervous that i might not understand something fully and wreck an output transformer...maybe thats silly though.Fryette looks great but is way more than I need. I just need attenuation, none of the amp business.Rivera looks good.I've also heard good things about the Tone King one and the Scumback one. The Tone King one in particular has great reviews. Found one gut shot and it seems super simple...maybe i'll buy one for a bit and trace it out.

Their site says that the 100 is good for an amp up to 60W RMS. Id like the ability to accept 100W amps. I'll be using it at times for playing, but also at times for bench use. If i'm working on a 100W Marshall I'd like to use the attenuator to keep it quiet while im testing it.

Would this be for trying out amps you re working on? Or is it for just playing at home? I m wondering if one of those speaker isolation boxes would be worth looking at. Haven t tried one personally, but the YouTube demos look pretty good.

For the WM 200, the only thing I could think it needs is a headphone out, and a multiple impedance option (maybe?!) . All of my heads can run 4 ohms so that's all I've run into it.100w or 50w amp goes in, as close to the same thing as can be, but quieter, comes out.I bought the thing so I could run 'all' of one amp, through the line out into a power amp as some sort of Herzog situation.
