The Fryette PS2A Power Station is the ultimate toolkit for guitarists who want perfect tube amp tone at any volume. This ingenious device is a unique attenuator and a 50-watt tube power amp rolled into one portable unit, designed to sit neatly on top of your amp head or combo.
Whether you're taming a fire-breathing 100-watt stack in your bedroom or turning your favorite mini-amp into a stage-ready powerhouse, the Power Station gives you total control over your sound without compromising an ounce of tone.
Finally, Attenuation Without Aggravation
If you’ve ever used a conventional power attenuator, you know the frustration. Your amp’s glorious tone turns thin and lifeless, the dynamic feel vanishes, and the volume knob seems to have only two settings: too loud and too quiet. The Power Station solves these problems, delivering your amp's pure, unadulterated tone at any volume, from a stage roar down to a whisper. It’s time to get the sound you love; at the volume you need.
True Tonal Preservation: The PS2A’s reactive load technology perfectly preserves your amp's character, dynamics, and speaker response at any volume. Your speaker cabinet still "sees" a real tube amp and output transformer, so it behaves naturally without the squashed, flat sound of lesser attenuators.
Dual 6L6 Tube Power: More than just an attenuator, the Power Station is also a 50-watt vacuum tube power amplifier. This allows you to boost any low-wattage amp, preamp, pedal, or modeler into a gig-worthy rig capable of cutting through a live band mix.
Integrated Effects Loop: Place your time-based effects like delay and reverb after your cranked power amp distortion. The post-distortion effects loop ensures your effects are lush and clear, not a muddy mess.
Your Rig’s New Best Friend
The Power Station is a powerful re-amping tool that breathes new life into all your gear. It’s the missing link that connects your studio aspirations with your live performance needs, giving you unprecedented flexibility and creative options.
Re-Amping Powerhouse: Crank your favorite mini tube amp into glorious meltdown, then use the Power Station to control the final volume. It’s perfect for turning preamps, floor pedals, and modeling amps into fully-fledged tube rigs for the stage or studio.
Silent Mode Recording: The built-in reactive load allows for completely silent recording without a speaker cabinet. Capture your amp's true tone directly into your interface while monitoring through headphones, making it ideal for late-night sessions or protecting sensitive studio mics.
No Latency, All Tube: The signal path is all-analog, meaning there is zero latency from A/D/A conversion. What you play is what you hear.
Total Connectivity and Control
Designed for seamless integration into any setup, the PS2A Power Station offers comprehensive connectivity and safety features that make it an indispensable part of your rig.
Versatile I/O: The Power Station includes an XLR balanced and a 1/4” unbalanced line out for connecting directly to a mixing console, recording interface, or front-of-house system.
Foolproof Impedance Matching: Forget the anxiety of mismatching your amp and cabinet. The PS2A provides independent impedance selectors (2/4, 8, or 16 ohms) for both the amplifier input and the speaker output, ensuring a safe and optimal connection for any combination of gear.
Compact and Portable: The lightweight and compact design allows the Power Station to sit comfortably on top of an amp head, combo, or on your desktop, making it easy to carry to any gig or studio session.
The Ultimate Tone-Shaping Tool
The Fryette PS2A Power Station is more than just a utility box; it's a creative tool that unlocks the full potential of your entire amplifier collection. It gives you the freedom to get the exact sound you want, wherever you are, without compromise.
