EXAMPLE
If the amplifier's minimum impedance rating = 8 ohms and you wish
to connect four 8 ohm speakers to a single amplifier channel:
8 ohm speakers / by 4 speakers = 2 ohm system impedance
8 ohm amplifier / by 2 ohm system impedance = 4X switch setting
Most speakers are rated at 4, 6 or 8 ohms. If connecting speakers
of different impedances to an amplifier, an average impedance
must be determined; 6-ohm speakers should be entered into
the equation as 4-ohm speakers. All volume controls connected
to the amplifier should always have the same impedance match
setting. Never go below an amplifier's minimum impedance rating
as this can cause damage to the amplifier. Both the EVC-100R and
EVC-100S have minimum impedance ratings of 4 ohms. If
connecting more than one speaker to the EVC-100R or EVC-100S,
make sure not to exceed this minimum.
INSTALLATION AND WIRING
The removable connectors allow for easy termination of speaker
wire to the volume controls.
1. Strip back 1/4" of insulation from each wire that is to be
connected to the volume control. Twist the exposed conductors
tightly so that there are no stray strands.
2. To make connecting wires to the volume control quick and easy, your
Episode volume controls use connectors that allow wire connection
without the need for additional tools such as screwdrivers. Simply
flip the levers on each connector up before inserting the
appropriate wire. Insert the wires then snap the levers down.
