I've been searching and coming up empty. Does anyone know of a simple dummy load box that just puts an 8 or whatever ohm load on your amp. No attenuation or anything fancy just something that makes the amp see a load in the 100-150 watt range??
Just a simple speaker out of the amp head into the load box. Doesn't need anything else. hope this makes sense?

The Suhr has a nice line out which could be very useful.

That is what I use for testing my amps and what I was going to recommend...

And has been working excellent ever since you recommended it to me, as well.

Thanks! :thumbsup:
 
Mike made me two of these load boxes. Use them to provide a load to an amp when bypassing a power section and going to a stereo power amp. Or, for using as a load for biasing amps.

Anytime. :thumbsup:
 
Is that just a giant load resistor inside a chassis? How big is the actual box?

I thought load resistors are like less than the size of a pen lid?

How big? Like what dimensions is it? 10cm long? Weighs a few kilos?
