Re: Setting Impedance

by jrv331@[EMAIL PROTECTED] Apr 28, 2008 at 02:15 PM

Thanks to all your guys help everything is hooked up and working - but
I have a small problem and since this is where I started the thread I
thought Id keep it here. First heres my setup, and I'll be as
descriptive as possible.
1) I am using a Pioneer VXS D414 receiver - according to the manual
the amp has a continuous power out put of 120w @[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 8 ohms. The manual
also mentions that it can be switched to 6ohms for 6ohm speakers. I
cannot find an on line version.

2) Radio Shack 40-244  Four way speaker selector (buttons A,B,C and
D)
Manual

3) Two Boston Acoustics Rotary Volume Controls - Model RVC90i( cant
find online manual). The controls have "Selectable impedance
magnifying: 1x 2x 4x 8x 16x. The impedance matching multipliers are
representing the multiplier used when using multiple speakers  to
represent a safe impedance lever to the amp" Im using three pr of
speakers and have the selector switch set at 4x

How its hooked up: From the receiver to the input on the speaker
selector. I have one pair of speakers on button A - these wires go
straight from the selector to the speakers. 1 pr on C - these wires go
from the selector switch to the volume control to the speakers. 1 pr
speakers on D - they are wired just like C.

So here the problem and I hope its not to confusing - I leave button A
always depressed and works great. When I also depress button C
everything still works great and the volume control works like a
charm, Now if i also depress button D - this volume control, controls
the speakers on D, however it also controls the speakers on C. BUT the
control on speakers C will not control the speakers on D. Ive double
checked my wiring and nothing is crossed. Could it be something with
the speaker selector -?
Thanks
John
