I had a look at another Exchange question, and couldn't quite understand. I have a set of cheap speakers, 8ohms each with a combined output of 6 watts. If sqrt(6w/8Ω) = 0.866 v, and [the post](https://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/100292/speaker-level-to-line-level) says line level is approximately 1 volt, what should my amperage be? How can I calculate for an appropriate resistor? I have about 10 150Ω resistors at home... will wiring them half and half between speakers attenuate the signal? How many do I need of each? EDIT (CLARIFICATION): *I want to know how to calculate the resistance needed to reduce a powered signal (6w) to line level.*
