The Supreme Soaker allows guitar players to maximise the potential of their tube amps in a way that has never been possible - until now. As a reactive attenuator and load box with a finely tuned analogue speaker simulator built in, the Supreme Soaker allows guitarists to permanently dial in their amp's sweet spot - at any volume - and it will quickly become their go-to device in any musical situation, from playing and recording at home to rehearsing with a band, and even playing live… without sacrificing one iota of their precious guitar tone.
Whether it's for jamming at home, recording their own music or playing with others - or all of the above - the Supreme Soaker is the perfect way to do that, while keeping the guitar/amp signal pristine and analogue at all times.
Here are just some of the Supreme Soaker's key benefits:- Reactive attenuator and load box: dial in a tube guitar amp's sweet spot at any volume, from zero (either by using headphones or recording silently) to room levels, to the boundaries of what's acceptable noise-wise… with no speaker cabinet required!
- Finely-tuned analogue speaker simulator: tweak the guitar rig's tone as necessary to reveal its ultimate tones - no need to mic up a cab ever again!
- Speaker output with unique tone control: shift the tonal palette of the speaker cabinet to conjure up new iconic worlds of sound.

- Front panel aux input: for jamming along to backing tracks, or even playing to a click! It couldn't be any easier with the Supreme Soaker.
- Balanced stereo XLR Line Outputs: when it comes to recording the sounds of a guitar amp, it doesn't get any easier.

- Amp protecting circuit with permanent amp load: never worry about plugging in an amp without a speaker connected again!
- All-analogue experience, with no App required! Perhaps most importantly of all, the Supreme Soaker is simple, direct and pure: the guitarist's analogue tone is preserved at all times, and all the controls they need are on the unit itself, so they can focus on the most important thing: making music!
And that's just the start. The Supreme Soaker will quickly become an indispensable tool for guitar players everywhere when it comes to their music making and creative endeavours. Its unparalleled tonal response, user experience and connectivity options are sure to make it the cornerstone of many a rig from now on - and family members, neighbours and audiences will thank Supreme Soaker players too!
Finally, for us - the Palmer team - this is the culmination of a long-term goal, the realisation of a decades-long dream in sound. We've been the industry leader in analogue tonal solutions for musicians and sound engineers for over 40 years. Now, building on the legacy of the award-winning PDI-09 and PDI-03 speaker simulators and the PDI-06 Attenuator and Load Box, our designers and engineers have applied their decades of experience to the development of the Supreme Soaker.
