RockBoard RPA 100 Power Attenuator

The RockBoard RPA 100 Power Attenuator is the solution to a problem every tone-conscious guitarist knows too well, your amp sounds best when it's loud, but your surroundings can’t always handle the heat. Whether you’re driving a vintage tube amp into glorious power amp saturation or pushing high-gain heads into their sweet spot, the RPA 100 gives you the ability to maintain all the dynamic response, warmth, and harmonic complexity of your amp, while drastically lowering the actual volume coming through your speaker.

Perfect for tube amps up to 100 watts, this passive attenuator allows you to dial in your dream tone; complete with rich overdrive and natural compression, and tame it to levels appropriate for rehearsal, studio sessions, or even late night playing. It keeps your amp working as intended, fully loaded and responsive, but lets your ears (and neighbours) off the hook.

With support for 4, 8, and 16 ohm impedance, the RPA 100 ensures your amp always sees the correct load, no matter what cab you’re using. It can even operate without a connected speaker, sending your amp’s signal directly to headphones for silent practice or through Line Out and DI Out to your mixer, recording interface, or live front-of-house system.

The built in cabinet simulation adds an extra layer of realism to your direct tones, making your amp sound mic’d and ready in the mix. Want to jam along with backing tracks or loop ideas on the fly? The AUX IN lets you feed in external audio from your phone, DAW, or drum machine for a complete, self contained practice or performance setup.

Whether you’re chasing saturated tube tones without blowing the roof off, tracking with precision, or rehearsing without compromise, the RockBoard RPA 100 Power Attenuator puts you in control of your volume - without ever giving up the soul of your sound.
