Hey Guys, 
 
I was asked to solve a small problem. 
 
at my work they have an audio system to have music in the restaurant and the hallway. 
But for some reason the sound volume in the hallway is much much louder. 
 
so they have the need to suppress the volume on that single speaker and asked me if i know how to. 
but to be honoust it puzzles me while it should be easy. 
 
what would be an easy way to do this? add an resistor ? and ifso.. around what ohm-age should i expect this to be? 
 
would really appreciate any tips. 
 
Kind greatings.

You need what is called an L-pad.
