    • Product Description

    The Shure A15AS Switchable In-Line Attenuator reduces the level of any balanced microphone or line-level signal by 15, 20, or 25 db. It is specially suited to reducing the level of a high-output microphone to prevent it from overloading the microphone input of a mixer or recorder in applications with high sound pressure levels. In addition, the A15AS may be used to reduce the level of a line-level mixer output to prevent overloading the aux-level input of a recorder.

    Shure works good!
    The microphone on my Denon MC4000 runs extremely hot. The slightest upward adjustment on my volume knob would case horrible feedback. This attenuator solved the problem 110%.. no more feedback and I have a fuller range of microphone sound control. Not the cheapest attenuator out there, but the solid build quality from a reputable company like Shure justifies the premium price.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Works really well to lower volume
    Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2021

    Sometimes there is not enough volume and you need a preamp, but sometimes the problem is just the opposite and there is too much volume. For this kind of problem, this little thing is a great solution. It seems to work great with the Zoom H4n, which has really "hot" premaps. Line in was blaring if the volume wasn't way down, so this seems to bring the volume down to a reasonable level. The mic seems to clip a little too, so if I keep the Zoom H4n, I might need to get another one of these. What is nice about this little gadget is that it is switchable. I don't always need the highest setting so it's nice to be able to choose a setting that works for my set up. So far I am happy with this product.

    Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2022
    style: Line AdapterVerified Purchase
    This Shure model is well built and does the job… however, -40 db is too much for my line-to-mic application. I was hooking a dbx 286s mic processor line out into the mic in of my Arrakis mixing console. -30 db is just about exactly right. I had to order another brand for that. I kept this one though, just in case I have a need for it. I would have paid the extra for the Shure brand, but they didn’t have a -30 db on Amazon
    Additional… I found a small input adjust on the console I am using this device with, adjusted that slightly, and the 40db down is now about right.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Definite RFI attenuation
    Reviewed in the United States on January 30, 2023
    style: RF FilterVerified Purchase
    Last November I had unexpected RF interference right in the middle of church service. I have been doing sound / video in this church for several years, and this is the first time this issue cropped up. Turns out there was a crew clearing land not too far away, and apparently they have hot-rodded their CB sets. There were only two mics which were sensitive to the RFI, out of seven total I have in use during service. After installing these RFI filters, and not hearing anything for weeks I thought ahah, problem solved. Well last Sunday, it’s back, however bleed thru of the interference is greatly reduced due to the filters to a level that is unnoticeable while someone is speaking at mics, but just audible when mic channel is open, but no input from speaking, for example. So, just Mute the channel. Short story, these in fact do attenuate RFI, not eliminate it. At least the RFI is not anywhere near the objectionable level it was previously. Just a side note, for two cents worth, the mics that are very sensitive to the RFI are Samson (CM-20?) gooseneck mics. I have since ordered a couple of Shure CVG-18B gooseneck mics, they claim internal shielding for RFI, so we shall see!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great for API 512c preamp
    Reviewed in the United States on August 11, 2023

    Great for API 512c preamp that doesn’t have an output control. I stick mine on the output to converter and now can use DI boxes better. On my API512C I noticed just because it hits red doesn’t mean clipping! This is the go to for API 512c preamps! I just set it at the lowest option and was good enough to turn up and hit no louder than -12 to -6 or so. I wasn’t able to turn my API up more than 9 o’clock before this. Now I can go noon or more for the mojo of that preamp.

    very useful device if your running from your own mixer and stage speaker set up and you want to run a line into the house mixer and speakers for additional set up and volume this is ideal it has 3 different db settings via a mini toddle switch this prevents your mixer line out from overloading the house mixer input preventing overload and distortion its not cheap but worth having in your cable box
