AmpRX BrownBox II Tube Amplifier Input Voltage Attenuator
5A Input AC Voltage Attenuator for Full-sized Tube Amplifiers, with LCD Voltmeter, 4 Selectable Input Voltages, 4 Selectable Output Voltages, Bypass, and Braced All-metal Chassis
Optimal Voltage for Superior Tube-amp Tone
Whether you're a professional recording engineer or a consummate tone purist, if you want to get the best possible sound from your tube amp, then you need an AmpRX BrownBox II voltage attenuator. All tube amps (especially vintage tube amps) are designed to run at an optimal voltage, and standard 120V/AC wall current is typically too high for vintage tube amps, as well as some modern designs. With its proprietary 5-amp transformer and flexible attenuation options, the AmpRX BrownBox II lets you bring that current down to an optimal level, resulting in significantly improved amp performance.
Safe, effective, and easy to use
Another benefit of running your amp at optimal voltage is that your tubes will usually last much longer — something many of us here at Sweetwater who've paid a pretty penny for new-old-stock tubes can appreciate. The BrownBox II is far safer and more effective than any standard variac, because it limits the input voltage and attenuates the output voltage. Figuring out your amp's optimal voltage is as easy as Googling the specs, and the BrownBox II's onboard output voltmeter lets you see exactly what you're pulling. The BrownBox II's four voltage-reduction modes let you get as close to optimal as possible, and there's a bypass setting so you can A/B the results.
