Passive Audio, or line level Volume controls are in actuality volume decreasers. One will set their stereo receiver or amplifier at the highest desired level, and the speaker volume control is as an in-line device used to decrease the audio output. When one has multiple units installed in each individual room or zone, it makes for a high performance but convenient audio speaker system. If you are listening to music in a room and the telephone rings, you do not have to go to the room with the stereo to turn down the music, you simply use your in wall line level volume control.
In Wall Speaker Volume Controls come in a rotary knob and slide switch styles, using your standard decora plates in white, ivory, bone, & almond. They are a tremendous compliment to any audio / stereo system, especially when dealing with multiple rooms and individual controls in each of the rooms. Wiring and installing these line level (and passive) units is a simple 4 wire in (left + - & right + -) and 4 wire out . You would go from the speakers out on your amp or receiver to the input of the volume control, and from the output to the speakers. With impedance matching models, you can connect from 2 to 16 pairs of speakers from one channel left/right output from the stereo. The impedance matching feature adjusts the impedance or resistance, measured in ohms, hence the stereo senses as if there is only one pair of speakers in use. You simply adjust a jumper switch for anywhere from 1 to 16 pairs of speakers.
Our line of these handy units is extensive, again, comprised of rotary knobs or slide switch. They are great for nearly every room in the house and are an inexpensive way to help operate your whole house audio system.
