Operation
1.
Make sure the amplifier or receiver power is OFF and set
the volume to minimum.
2.
Set the VCS-2D-HP volume to maximum (fully
clockwise).
3.
If you are using a Niles speaker selection system, locate
the ON/OFF button which corresponds to the speaker pair
you wish to play. Set it to the ON position.
4.
Turn on the amplifier or receiver and select a source,
such as the tuner or CD player.
5.
Slowly turn up the amplifier or receiver volume and set it
to a comfortable (not maximum) listening level. Be careful
not to overdrive or "clip" your amplifier. If the sound
becomes muddy or distorted, you have reached the limit of
your amplifier’s volume capability and should quickly
reduce the volume to avoid damaging your speakers.
6.
Adjust the volume of the speakers to the desired listening
level using the VCS-2D-HP. If all the speaker pairs in your
system are equipped with Niles volume controls, you can
leave the amplifier or receiver volume set at one position
and use the Niles controls exclusively.
7.
You can turn off the speakers by turning the knob on the
VCS-2D-HP fully counter-clockwise, or by pressing the
ON/OFF button on your speaker selector.
