mointor speaker volume

[B.Toff]

I would like to use a small passive speaker as a monitor connected to my
existing keyboard amp speakers, what would I need to insert in the lead so
that I could alter the volume

Thanks

A pretty heavy-duty stepped resistor.

Is this for gigs? Why not position your main speakers so you can
hear them? If you set speakers back a bit, not only can you hear,
you'll also turn them down a bit. Good for you, good for the
audience.

Many times I've played a dirty trick. You turn the guitar or bass
speaker so that it's pointing right at the player's head. "It's too
loud!" they complain. "Yes, isn't it" I reply

Sometimes they just grin. Then you're REALLY in trouble

Hi yes it is for gigs and maybe I diddn't explain correcty, I play all sorts
of weird shaped small bars that involve having to put speakers in all sorts
of positions, I have seen for sale wedge shaped passive monitors with volume
knobs on, I have a few spare speakers and cabs and am trying to find out
just what is inside the commercial ones so I can knock some of my own up
