I have a Russound ADP-1.2 that I am using to take my speaker-level output, down to a line-level output. It works fine, but there's not enough power going to the amp which is driving my woofers for bass.(Crown XLS 1002).
The specs on the Russound says it decreases the level by 30db. In order to get the bass to the level I want it, I have to max out the dials on the Crown amp. I'd much rather have some headroom to play with, and minimize any hum I'm getting from the amp since the levels are maxed out
I would like to replace the resistors with something less aggressive in order to get a -15db or a -20db, instead of the current -30db.
Anyone who really knows about resistors that can help?

Well it says its a 3k9 / 430R divider, which is -20dB
The yellow bands on the 430R resistors don't look very yellow in the photo but that's probably lighting?
For -15dB change the 430R resistors to 820R 1/2 or 1/4W
