The maximum possible attenuation is -40db. At this setting, nearly all the power from the amplifier is dissipated in the Ironman, and very little is sent to the speaker. At this setting, you can safely unplug the speaker, and use the Ironman as a dummy load.

You'll notice that the Attenuation dial is split into two ranges at the left side of the knob. The Range switch selects between these two ranges, as follows: Range Switch: 0-30db setting The attenuation values shown at left in red are available when the Range switch is in the 0-30db position.
Ironman, simply set the Speaker Impedance switch to match that speaker's impedance. If you are connecting two speakers to the Ironman, it is best to use two speakers with the same impedance. If you do this, then the total combined impedance will be 1/2 of each speaker's impedance.
Line Out Line Out The Ironman's Line-Out jack (5) provides a line-level signal that can be used to drive another amplifier, mixing board, computer sound input, or any other line level input. The specs for this output signal are as follows: Output Level: approx.
Use as a Dummy Load Use as a Dummy Load The Ironman may be used as a dummy load, to provide a proper load for your amplifer, with no speakers attached. This is typically done in recording, where the Ironman's Line-Out will be used to drive a mixing board, or when an amplifier is being "slaved"...
What to Expect When Attenuating What to Expect When Attenuating Although the Ironman attenuator does an excellent job of reducing output power without changing the tone of the amp’s circuitry, there are other variables in play at lower volume which do result in some apparent tone change. Here are a few factors...
