Sonance VC60RIM and VC60SIM Impedance-Multiplying Stereo Volume Controls

The Sonance VC60RIM and VC60SIM are designed to enhance audio systems by providing impedance-multiplying capabilities. These advanced volume controls feature 12 control positions, offering smooth, soft-touch action with silent switching. The VC60RIM uses a rotary control, while the VC60SIM incorporates a slider control for a different user experience. These controls are ideal for amplifiers delivering up to 60 watts RMS per channel, safely enabling the use of multiple pairs of speakers with a single amplifier.

Both volume controls are equipped with adjustable impedance jumpers that allow up to 8 pairs of 8-ohm speakers (or 4 pairs of 4-ohm speakers) to be connected to an 8-ohm amplifier. These features ensure optimal power distribution and prevent overloading of the amplifier. While designed for background music systems, users should be aware that the impedance jumpers reduce power to each speaker when multiple pairs are used. As such, the VC60RIM and VC60SIM controls are recommended for environments where moderate speaker output is sufficient, such as offices or retail spaces.

The VC60RIM and VC60SIM are easy to implement and reliable, offering a practical solution to safely run multiple speakers from a single amplifier without risking amplifier damage. However, for dedicated high-volume listening, Sonance advises using a dedicated amplifier or standard volume control to ensure the system's performance.
