Any opinions on the Pioneer SA-9500 amp? Might be able to get one in great condition at a good price.
25dB of attenuation is a good place to start. Your resistor values look good.
Here's the basic attenuator layout:

I was trying to decide between a Scott 233 or Fisher X-100 (both refurbished) but decided to wait it out. Well that was until the retailer offered a one day only 15% discount. I couldn't resist!
As I had a hard time deciding between the two, I just went by which output tubes they use (Scott 7591, Fisher EL-84). So it looks like I'll be joining the Fisher X-100 club. I know there's a few guys on here who really enjoy it with headphones.
Even with the 15% discount it was by no means inexpensive, but I guess that's the way it is with this kind of gear in Europe. I can always return it if the sound isn't to my liking anyway, which is a huge plus.
With a Sansui AU-555A currently in my possession and Sony TA-4650 V-Fet and Fisher X-100 coming my way, I've gone all in on vintage gear. It's going to be a fun next couple of weeks
This maybe off topic but since we're on a vintage gear thread i should ask here instead,Which one of the two is a better format to transfer VINYL RECORDS Cassette Tape or Reel To Reel?I'am looking at this PIONEER RT-1011L and AKAI GX-265D R2R Decks but for the Cassette Recorder haven't see anything yet.Thanks!
