Hi!
Did you measure the frequency response?
As suggested above: Measure frequency response fully open and at lower volume steps.

Rigth channel position 13th, it seems attenuator is gone because I only get 1Khz sinus when I push the attenuator.

I have changed the 10R filament resistor from a Dale 50W WW to a pair of Ohmite Brown Devils 100W resistors. They are about 8-inches long a challenge to fit. However, the sonic improvements is well worth the effort.

Good work, HMT!
You are using Filament Bias with your Coleman Regulators?
And these are the Brown Devils:

Are they the B20J10R?
The B20NJ10R would be an interesting comparison, with its Ayrton-Perry non-inductive construction.
Thanks for the report on the Resistors!

Tx Rod - Yes, I am using filament bias with Coleman Regulators. Great product. Absolutely quite in a single chassis, and no hum on my Altec 288-8H/1505b horns.
The resistors are actually Ohmite L100J10R - 5%. I got a few and matched a pair to 9.9R.

Hi Felipe,
I already stated two times how to proceed. I cannot help any further if you don't follow the suggestions.
1. Get the TVC to work first in the 4dB step set up. Test each setting. You apparently have bad connections. You need to fix these
2. Do frequency sweeps as suggested to get a clearer understanding of 'lack of mids and bass'

Hi Thomas,
You are right was a cold joint contact at the attenuator now is fixed, I tested with the scope the frecuency response and seems good. How can I do to the TVC works in the 2dBs steps?
Kind regards

Hi,
I can't appreciate the sound because with 4dBs steps sounds louder in my system (94dBs loudspeakers) also is a different kind of sound than a carbon pot.

Hi!
So is the lack of mid/bass you mentioned gone or not? It is really hard to help with the little information you provide. I would not start to rewire the TVC until you are sure it sounds right and performs right. I did sent a detailed description how to wire for 2dB/steps. If you don't understand it please ask what exactly you don't understand.

I guess the first position is the lowest volume so would be -39db as u increase your volume it will become more +ve, until 0db is the loudest
