Operation

The are two ways to use the SVL-2. You may play and adjust
the volume of either pair of speakers independently, or both
pairs simultaneously. 

If you intend to play both pairs simultaneously, and either
pair is less than 8 ohms, you will need to become familiar
with the operation of the SVL-2's PROTECTION button. 

Playing One Pair of Speakers At a Time

1. Make sure the amplifier or receiver power is OFF and set
the volume to minimum.

2. Set the SVL-2 volume control for the speaker pair you wish
to play to maximum (fully clockwise).

3. Locate the ON/OFF button on the SVL-2 which corre-
sponds to the speaker pair you wish to play. Set it to the ON
position.

4. Turn on the amplifier or receiver and select as 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.

"TECH TIP"

If your amplifier or

receiver has "A" 

and "B" speaker-

pair outputs, 

connect the SVL-2 
to the "A" outputs.

Do not connect 

anything to "B". 

This will prevent 

the amplifier or

receiver from driving

an unusually low
impedance load.
