About the Russound ADP-1.2 Speaker-level to Line-level Adapter
Meet Tara W.

Dreaming up fun ways to share information about the latest gear.
I'm the wireless networking and AV hookup specialist for most of my family and friends, but I guess that's just how it goes when you work at Crutchfield. I've been with Crutchfield's Creative Department since 2006 and throughout that time, I've written about home theater sound, TVs, cameras, multi-room audio, and wireless music systems.
My current interests are in streaming video, wireless music systems, and smart home gear. I've been a huge proponent of Sonos music systems for years and talk about them with anyone who'll listen. Most recently, having upgraded our internet connection at home, I'm trying to figure out how to take advantage of our newly discovered bandwidth. I'm installing video doorbells and dreaming up a way to get Netflix in our treehouse.
In my current role, I manage our video and social media content production, so I spend most of my days watching videos on AV gear and playing on Facebook and Instagram.

Featured review
I have a slightly older Onkyo Integra A/V r and after randomly seeing a YouTube video I was directed to Crutchfield a the product worked very well signal test showed only 0.06 -db. line noise. Thank you Crutchfield for the mounting video tips.

Customer Q&A
Q
Will use of this attenuator on the speaker B outputs reduce the wattage going to speaker A? If so, is there another solution that will work to get a signal to a sub when a receiver has no sub or preamp outs? Thanks!
A
This should not cause a reduction in wattage to your A speakers. This would be the best means of adding a subwoofer without the need of replacing your receiver.
