So there is really a company called Schiit? That's very amusing for some silly reason. But a great call, I have issues with one source being significantly louder than others. And I have to be careful when changing sources to be sure not to blow myself up!
I do live sound, and I keep a few attenuators in my ditty bag at all times, many effects and processing devises raise their output to insane levels. A singer I worked with had this harmonizer, pitch corrector pedal that was so hot I couldn't even turn him off! That's how Input channels get burnt up. So, an attenuator did the trick. But I never considered using one in my stereo? All it really is but a simple resistor, maybe nothing else? It need not even be in the signal path, but shunts a portion of the input to ground. I've seen the inline ones for car stereo, very cheap, and in different strengths. Thank you for the idea! I'll have to look up this Schiit company!
