Can someone suggest a power soak of some kind that will handle the 2 ohm load of a Super? I love the amp but my goodness it's LOUD.
Or better still, plans to build one. Thanks for any advice.

I have a weber mass and its great... it has no issue with 2 ohm loads. Well worth the 200 bucks I paid for it. Its great if you want to back down the volume a few notches. No attenuator ive ever heard sounds great taking an amp on 10 down to coversation levels. If you need 8 on your amp to sound like 5... this is the way to go.

Thanks for the info. I read up on the Weber and it seems to be the one with the best features and a reasonable price/ Some units are insanely expensive. I think I'll order a Weber. Thanks again.

Staying with Weber.....you could also try switching to, Two 4 Ohm speakers (10 inch).
Depending on the size of the stage and the room, simply turning the map can be quite effective as well.
The attenuator is probably the "easier" solution....but options are always a plus.
good luck

I see the Weber Mass has a 2 ohm option anyways so all should be well. Thanks.
