Hi
I made an attenuator for valve guitar amp repairs many years ago.
In the workshop I used a dummy load mostly but the band boys wanted to hear the amp fully cranked up on collection.
There was no way I could allow this as the Audio Dept was directly above the main office.
So I made up the box with various load resistors and dropping resistors to the speakers. Only had to buy a die-cast box, all the resistors were made up from TV droppers, worked a treat, most likely in the loft somewhere.
