Attenuator Question

[Shepard man]

I've been looking at the Swart Night Light Junior (handles 15 Watts), since my amps are all 5 Watts and under.

If I were to get a Mini Recto in the future and only use it on the 10 Watt setting, would this cause harm to either the amp or attenuator?

I don't gig so it's doubtful the 25 Watts would ever be needed.

Should be no problem. Check that the attenuator and the various amps have a matching impedance setting.

It's OK if you will only use the 10 watt setting. But, if it is possible that someone else might set the Recto to 25 watts the attenuator would probably get very hot.

That's what I was thinking. Thank you!
