Re: Setting Impedance

by jrv331@[EMAIL PROTECTED] Apr 26, 2008 at 01:57 PM

Sorry, didnt think make/model would matter. I have a Pioneer VSX-D414
receiver, manual says: 120w @[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 8ohms. The speaker selector is a radio
shack 40-244rated at 8ohms as well. The Boston volume control has a
impedance selector switch to set it at 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, 8x and 16x
ohms depending on how many speakers are on the system. The instruction
manual for the volume control is very confusing.
thanks
John
