In Wall Speaker Volume Control - Home Audio Smart 2-Channel A/B Dual Channel Speakers Controller Selector Pod Box - Rotary Knob Fader Control Up to (2) Pair of Indoor or Outdoor Speakers - Pyle PVCD15

I have a pair of high-end speakers in my living room. I have another pair of (smaller) speakers for my 'rear speakers'. My rear speakers and smaller and require less power to reach higher volumes (decibel rating). I needed to find a way to control the rear speaker volume. I searched Amazon.com for a compatible unit that I could use to control rear speaker volume, but didn't find anything that would fit my need. I decided I could build a in-line volume control box using all Amazon products, i.e. volume control, female banana jacks, male banana jumper cables and the 3=gang electrical box. Bottom line -it works, and all the components needed were found on Amazon.com.

This inexpensive solution to control external extended speakers volume works very well. The 150watt wattage provides for more then enough power.In this application we are using an older Panasonic receiver with a single volume control for both main and remote speakers. This arrangement provided no ability to control the volume independently between sets of speakers. The Pyle provided the solution.The controls are notched providing ample range and adjustment to meet the needs of two sets of speakers. One set, the main, are using the volume control of the receiver and the second set, (remote) wired through the Pyle, are adjusted to achieve the desired fade/balance between the two sets.In this situation the two sets of speakers are not matched in that the remote set is more efficient(loud) and this Pyle controller provides the ability to reduce the volume(fade) providing main/remote balance in the room.Once the (Fade) is set between the two sets of speakers the main volume allows for balanced volume up/down control. Great solution I'm delighted listening to classic music in my workshop!

Works well. Be better if it had infinite adjustment instead of steps, but I knew that going in. Also the ports where the wires go in are pretty small and I stripped out one of the screws because my wires were to thick. Good for the price though and does its job. Looks good and seems well made.

Work as expected

Most volume controls have (1) knob that controls (1) pair of speakers. This v/c has (2) knobs, (1) for each speaker. AWESOME if you want a speaker in your kitchen louder or software on one side than the other.-That's GREAT.-BUT this unit is advertised as a volume control for (2) pairs of speakers. In order to do that correctly, it would need (16) terminals.+&- for A Left In+&- for A Right In+&- for A Left Out+&- for A Right Out+&- for B Left In+&- for B Right In+&- for B Left Out+&- for B Right Out! This unit only has (8) terminals.A In / Com / Com / OutB In / Com/ Com / Out70 Volt / 100 Volt Commercial Systems Often use a Com in & Out.*Therefore, if this was advertised correctly, it should at least say something such as 2-Zone Volume Control for Commercial 70 / 100 Volt systems. *NOT 70 / 100 Watt systems- 70 / 100 Volt systems like many retail stores and restaurants.Regardless, this volume control ABSOLUTELY is NOT designed to operate (2) independent stereo pairs of speakers.Because that is how it is listed, and the product doesn't at all do what it is listed as capable of doing, the review is 1-star. *I bought mine (3) years ago and the description hasn't changed. Oops on someone.---"Pyle in Wall Speaker Volume Control - Home Audio Smart 2-Channel A/B Dual Channel Speakers Controller Selector Pod Box - Rotary Knob Fader Control Up to (2) Pair of Indoor or Outdoor Speakers PVCD15"

I added two patio speakers to my amp. After connecting left and right of speakers 'B' to the inputs of this dual control, I can now adjust my volume up to what the main amp volume is set at or at any point lower. And each patio speaker can be individually adjusted.

Functions to control the speaker volumes individually which is helpful when the amp is in another room. The appearance is good and comes with a white face plate. In operation the knobs are stiff to turn. The worst part is installation. The connection blocks are very poorly designed. The wires should insert from the back, not the side. When placed in a standard box the wires have to be bent 90 degrees at the terminal block and crammed against the wall of the box. The terminal will barely accept 14 ga wire. I had to solder the ends of the stranded wire to get it pushed in. Also the face plate screws are short and strip out in the plastic support very easily.

Will install when the rains stop.. Thank you.

Perfect just as needed

This was my second attempt. The first one (different brand) came broken and I had to return it but I noticed that it was too deep for the electrical box. This one fits... barely, but it fits in a standard electrical box. Very important because most of these types of units have a large circuit board and they do not fit in a standard box. The message is that if you are using a standard surface mount or recessed electrical box to install your volume control make sure you check the dimensions. This one fits and it is also nice that it has two volume controls, one for each speaker. Works as advertised and did I mention that it FITS???

Pero me gustaría si era mucho mas fino. Cambiar un numero da mucho cambio?

Very fast service ,great price and quality
