rothwell attenuators..effect on sound?


i am considering getting a pair of these and using them between my integrated amp and cd player to reduce some excess gain. i did read that they will cut volume output by 10db which is why i may buy them. but will using these change the sound quality at all? i did read one professional review that stated cd's sounded softer and less "digital" sounding, which was good for bright recordings, not so good for others. does his observations match the opinion of others here who have used them? thanks for your input.

regards,
Paul

I bought the comparable goldenjacks attenuators on eBay and did not notice any difference other than the lower volume level. Made my volume control much more effective. Very high quality construction for less than the Rothwells. Search goldenjacks on eBay. I have no affiliation with this seller other than as a satisfied customer.
Paul,

The price difference would be small, if any.

Send him an email. I found him to be very responsive.

It looks like he has changed to a slightly different exterior since I bought mine.

I continue to be quite sastified with them.
