Incorporating A Volume Control - Niles ROCK SPAEKER Installation Manual

inCorporating a VoluMe Control

It is possible to control the volume of the sound at the speaker location. Volume
controls are connected in line with the speaker, an example of wiring an area with
2 speakers and a master volume control is shown in Figures 3a and 3b, 3a is
for one-speaker stereo mode (SI models only) and 3b is for two-speaker stereo
mode. It is usually desirable to control the volume of the speakers in different
areas or zones of the outdoor system. A suggested way to accomplish this is
shown in Figures 4a and 4b, 4a is for SI models in one-speaker stereo mode and
4b is for two-speaker stereo mode.
Niles makes a wide range of outdoor volume controls. We recommend our
standard WVC series models. In addition to controlling the volume of the
loudspeakers, these controls can allow the addition of added speakers
without adding more amplifier channels. Volume controls provide flexibility and
customization to make the system reliable and easy to use. Consult your local
Niles dealer for more information about using volume controls.
