Fryette Power Station PS-100

With two sets of footswitchable front panel controls and a footswitchable FX loop, the PS-100 is designed to be transparent, easy to use, reliable and extremely responsive to a wide variety of guitar amp and speaker types. It also integrates seamlessly into any combination of internal and external speaker configurations.

The PS-100 also excels as a power booster, something no other attenuator can do. Just as you would connect a large amplifier to reduce the output volume, the PS-100 can also be used to boost the power of a small amplifier. Imagine taking your mini-amplifier or small vintage combo to a gig with enough power to be heard without sacrificing feel or sound quality. This is not only possible, but also simply ingenious and fun!

Furthermore, the PS-100 can be used as a versatile, noiseless amp for direct recording by simply connecting the balanced or unbalanced line output to your recording interface.

Our Integrated Reactance Amplifier® is an easy-to-use, tunable unit that is coupled to a tube amplifier and can be connected directly to a speaker cabinet.

PS-100 capabilities:

1) As an attenuator to control the volume of very loud amps without the disadvantages of a conventional power soak

• Preserves the sound of the damped amplifier perfectly at any volume setting down to the whisper level

• Preserves the dynamic feel and speaker response at any volume

• Allows you to expand the intonation of any amp - a vintage amp can sound more modern, a modern amp more vintage, a dull sounding amp more lively, a "spongy" amp can sound tighter, etc.

• Provides a post-distortion effect loop for any amplifier, whether it already has one or not

• Provides an unbalanced line out for any amplifier, whether it already has one or not

• Completely safe for any amplifier

• Select 4, 8 and 16 ohms separately for matching amplifier and housing. No more nerve-racking impedance mismatching that could damage your amplifier

• Compact and easy to transport, sitting on an amplifier head, combo or desk

• Silent Direct recording via unbalanced out

2) As power booster for low power amplifiers

• Can attenuate or amplify the output of a lunchbox amplifier

• Any small amplifier, e.g. Tiny Terror, Tweed Champ, AC15, Princeton etc., can be amplified at a live gig without losing the original sound

• Allows you to expand the intonation of the amplifier

• Silent Direct recording via unbalanced out
