VCS60
Stereo Volume Control
The VCS60 is a wall mounted stereo volume control, which connects between a pair of speakers and the speaker level output of an
amplifier, receiver or speaker selector.
Before mounting the volume control into the wall, consider how
it will be used. It is important to keep in mind the location of the
primary listening area and the ease of running the wire to the
location you choose. It is common to mount the volume control
by the door as you walk into a room, next to existing wall fixtures,
or in the primary area where you will be listening to music.
Do not place the volume control into the same box as a 110V
AC circuit. (i.e. light switch, electrical outlet, etc.). Speaker
wires can act as an "antenna" for electrical noise. Placing
speaker wires too close to a light switch or dimmer may cause
buzzing or popping sounds to be heard through the speakers. If
you must locate the VCS60 near electrical devices, use a sepa-
rate electrical box.
Once the location has been determined, install a standard single
gang plaster ring, or a single gang electrical box (light switch
type) before installing the VCS60.
INTRODUCTION
PLACING THE VCS60
CAUTION
• Please be sure that your amplifier or receiver is turned off
prior to wiring the VCS60.
• Damage to your audio system may occur if the VCS60 is not
wired properly.
The VCS60 features a quick and secure wire connecting system,
which eliminates the need for turning small screws.
For best results, strip the speaker wire no more than
1
⁄
4
" from the
end. Push the wire completely into the opening on the connector,
then lift the lever using your finger or screwdriver. This will secure
the wire.
(see Figure 1)
If you need to remove the wire, simply push the lever down. This
can be done with your finger, but it may be easier to use a screw-
driver or similar tool. With the lever in the down position, you can
pull the wire out.
