The Pinpoint Audio AVC-100R.IR speaker volume controller
provides full control of remote in-wall / in-ceiling or home theater speakers
without having to use your remote or receiver controls. Designed to fit in a
standard, single gang box, you can place this controller anywhere needed and
full volume control. This controller supports impedance matching for up to 16
pairs of speakers and is rated to 100 Watts (RMS) per channel at 8 Ohms. Input and
Output connectors can accept speaker wire from 12awg to 22awg making it perfect
for updating your current system or adding it into new system installations.
For additional flexibility, a IR Repeater (Single Band Signals Only) is built
into the controller (sensor is located right above the volume controller knob),
expanding your ability to extend your control of additional devices located out
of the room by simply pointing your remote at the IR sensor. Instructions and
white decora style wall plate included. Use of in-wall rated speaker wire
should be used to prevent fire hazard and increase safety. Professional installation
is recommended.
Specs:
Input: 2 channels, 100 Watts per Channel (RMS)
Output: 2 Channels; 4 to 16 Ohms, impedance
matching
Frequency Response: 35 Hz to 20 kHz (+0/-2db) at
rated power
Wire Gauge 12 to 22 AWG (Recommended)
Size: Standard Single Gang Box (2 ¾” depth)

When setting up the speaker volume controls, it is important
to match the impedance of your speaker system with the load rating of your
amplifier. This is done by setting the jumpers on the volume control to
compensate for the number of speakers you have in a parallel configuration and
the impedance level of the speakers.
Note that for any speakers wired in series, the overall
impedance level is the sum of each speaker. Example: two 4 ohm speakers wired in series is the same
impedance as a single 8 ohm speaker.
