Hi guys,

I'm looking to further reduce the output voltage from my preamp. It currently has 1 Dale 100k resistor so I've been advised to put another 100k one in series to achieve the desired effect.

Just wondered if I could improve upon this resistor by maybe going carbon or a composite without introducing unwanted noise.

So far on my list I've come across:

Shinkoh
Amtrans AMRG
Arcol carbon composite
Holco
Takman carbon
Takman metal film

I'm assuming I'll only need up to around 0.25w tolerance as it's probably not going near that and the ones in there now are the smallest type so probably 0.25w?

Help and advice much appreciated.

Cheers
