That coloring/softening is why I didn’t care for the sound of the Acoustic Imagery JaySho (which is basically a Bent). That sound can be a subtle effect but it is there. I have 3 resistor passives here now, Goldpoint, Endler, and the Khozmo that I like best. Takman REY shunts and Vishay "nude" Z-foil series resistors in the Khozmo. The Endler sounds a little coarse or unrefined, the Goldpoint with SMD resistors is clean but maybe a touch thin, and the Khozmo doesn’t have much of its own sound at all. It is definitely more neutral than the Shallco volume control using AN Tantalum resistors that I took out of the signal path of my preamp - which is now a buffer. The Khozmo was very reasonably priced considering the features and the sound quality.
Are there passive attenuators that don't zero volume and only offer one input ?
I am not sure how many people would like those features, but its worth asking in case someone would try to sell such a thing.
Which is to say it is essential I should think to be able to zero volume, and have more than one input, do you agree ?
