Introduction
The TVC-1 is a tabletop volume control for speakers. It connects between the speaker-level output of an amplifier, speaker selector, etc. and a pair of speakers.
A perfect application for the TVC-1 is adjusting the volume of
remotely located speakers. The TVC-1 adjusts the volume of
speakers connected to it by attenuating the amplifier signal.
Niles volume controls use autoformers instead of L-pads for
the volume controlling element. This assures minimal internal
power dissipation with virtually no power wasted as heat.
Balancing Speaker Volume
The volume control on your receiver or amplifier serves as the
“master” volume for all speaker pairs connected.
The volume level of the speakers may vary from room to
room. This is caused by several factors. Two lesser factors are
the size of the speaker and its efficiency. The largest factor is
the physical size of the room.
The best way to balance speaker volume is to equip each of
the speaker pairs in your system with a Niles volume control.
The controls allow you to adjust the volume of each speaker
pair individually. 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.
