• ere's the solution to a problem from which far too many audiophiles suffer - too much gain in the system. The symptoms are easy enough to spot - the volume is plenty loud enough with the volume control set to the 9 o'clock position, too loud with the volume control at 10 o'clock, and fine control at low levels is impossible. This may seem like nothing more than a minor , but in truth the performance of the system is being compromised. Although potentiometers work reasonably well over most of their operating range, they are notoriously problematic at extreme settings. The most obvious problem is channel imbalance - one channel will fade out (or fade in) quicker than the other, causing the stereo image to shift to one side - but on a more subtle level, the music may sound veiled and indistinct with the volume control turned down to the point where it is nearly off.

Rothwell Balanced XLR In-line Attenuators * Supplied in Pairs Rothwell in-line attenuators have proved very popular and have cured the problems associated with excess gain in countless systems around the world. Unfortunately audiophiles whose amplifiers use balanced connections were unable to enjoy the same benefits - unitl now. Rothwell have just launched the balanced in-line attenuator, designed specifically for high end hifi systems. The attenuators use precision resistors and silver plated, oxygen-free solid core copper wiring to offer an audiophile performance to match the hi-end equipment with which they will be used. Here's the solution to a problem from which far too many audiophiles suffer - too much gain in the system.
