You are already frustrated with the typical 3dB step switch that always seems one step too loud or one step too quiet. If you've used a solid state powered attenuator, you've already experienced the flat speaker cab response and finicky effects loop function that never seems to be the perfect level.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Power Station® solves all of those problems in one convenient, lightweight product that sits neatly on top of any head or combo amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt serves as:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1) An attenuator for controlling the volume of high powered amplifiers with none of the drawbacks of a conventional attenuator.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfectly preserves the tone of the attenuated amplifier at any volume setting  down to whisper level.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreserves the dynamic feel and speaker response at any volume.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAllows you to extend the voicing of any amplifier - a vintage amp can sound more modern, a modern amp more vintage, a dull sounding amp more alive, and a \"spongy\" amp can sound tighter, etc.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides a post distortion effects loop for any amp whether or not it already has one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides an unbalanced line out for any amp whether or not it already has one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompletely safe for any amplifier.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChoose 4, 8 and 16 ohms separately for both the amplifier and cabinet matching.
