6. Using the appropriate volume control on the front of the
SVL-2, adjust the volume of the speakers to the desired listen-
ing level.

volume control on the SVL-2 fully counter-clockwise, or by
pressing the ON/OFF button.
Playing Two Pairs of Speakers Simultaneously
1. Make sure the amplifier or receiver power is OFF and set
the volume to minimum.
2. On the right side of the SVL-2's front panel is a button
labeled PROTECTION. This button activates the SVL-2's imped-
ance correction circuitry. The circuitry assures that your receiv-
er or amplifier will see a safe operating load when playing two
pairs of speaker simultaneously. Since most receivers and
amplifiers are not rated for use below a 4 ohm load, you will
need to activate the PROTECTION button whenever the over-
all system impedance might fall below 4 ohms. Use the follow-
ing chart as a guide for setting the PROTECTION button.
When playing the following speakers:
1 or 2 pair of 8-ohm speakers
1 pair of 4-ohm speakers
2 or more pairs of 4-ohm speakers
Any combination of 4 and 8 ohm speakers
The Protection button should be:
OFF

ON

Set the PROTECTION button to the correct position using the chart shown above.
