Re: Power Attenuator and Super Reverb
Hi Bjorn,,  
Just saw your post and since no one else  
replied, I can say that you can safely  
use the power brake with the Super as  
the Brake impedence is higher than the  
OT's impedence... You can use a higher  
load but not lower. You might even like  
the tone better with the brake at a  
higher impedence. I have a very early  
GT Speaker Emulator which I've heard  
was licensed by Marshall for the Brake  
and I always prefer using the 16 ohm  
setting with all my amps regardless of  
the OT load. In this setup, it just  
sounds better to me and the manual  
that came with it also suggests this.  
Best luck with it...  
Steve K
