Question about attenuator & impedence

[devnulljp]

So, I just ordered a Weber attenuator with multi-resistance settings.
My combo had an 8 ohm internal speaker (and an 8 ohm out for an external speaker too). I'm going to hook this thing up to the internal speaker.
Here's the question: What resistance should I set it to?
If I set it to 8 ohm, doesn't that mean the actual load will be 8/2 = 4 ohms (if it's hooked up in parallel) or 16 if it's in series?
Am I worrying needlessly and is the whole thing set up for 8 ohms = if you have an 8 ohm speaker etc.?
Thanks

The attenuator goes in series between the amp and speaker and should be set to the setting corresponding to that speaker and the output jack used ie. 8 ohms in your case

Cool, thanks. I knew deep down I was over-analysing it and the answer would be something like that...
