medved_wanders Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Hi All, looking for some advice. I am trying to reduce volume of my tube amp because I practice in a small room with neighbors on the other side of the wall. I came across AUD OX, which seems to accomplish the task, but it also does a lot of what HX does and costs almost as much. What other solutions should I consider, ie load boxes, attenuators, etc. what are you using with your setup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobcoss Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 When I'm at home and in a "small room" I crank my tube amp up! Drives my wife crazy. But if I don't want to be loud. I use my Helix and PowerCab + 112 at lower volumes. There are going to be differences in the EQ at lower volumes than at stage volumes. I personally don't bother with the tube amp at home much any more. The Helix provides everything I need. It's very nice going to gig without carrying a tube amp and cabinet now. If you have to practice with the tube amp, then I would get a reactive load box with and IR loader so you can use roughly the same settings and saturate the tubes. There Two Notes and Suhr are very popular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
