Take a look at the original Airbrake design in the Trainwreck files section.

thanks lot.

i think it would work just to add a 25 ohm /20 watt resistance in serie to the 25 ohm resistance between switch position 4 (bedroom).

this would raise the 25 ohm original to 50 ohm in position 4.

this should lower the -11 dB original to about -20 dB,
(i hope)

cheers

ps
may be even a 10 watt resistor would work in this position.
and it should be enough place for it.
