    Well, in audio it's always been assumed (and rightly so) that the less there is in the signal path, the better off you are. Since your source had more than enough output to drive your mains, aattenuation was all you needed. Anything else was superfulous (sp) and merely added it's signature into the chain..

    Nice attenuator, btw. I like it. Ever think of trying those $500 wooden knobs everyone in AA is chortling about?
