Quad Passive Fixed Line Out Attenuator

1

Here’s a quick build I put together last night. I recently acquired a Ladik preamp module for boosting line levels. There’s also a complimentary line out module, but it’s just jacks and resistors so I figured I could put something like that together myself. Cost of materials was less than $5.

In the case with the preamp module:

I settled on 150K resistors between tips and 1K between sleeves. I think it brings the level down ~12dB in my particular setup:

They actually won’t. I grouped mine so the ins and outs that go together are slightly closer. The Ladik ones are completely evenly spaced.
