Operation	10	A perfect application for the SVL-2 is individually controlling
		speaker "ON/OFF" and volume adjustment for two pairs of

		and another pair at a remote location. The SVL-2 adjusts the
		volume of the speakers connected to it by attenuating the
		amplifier signal. Niles volume controls use autoformers
		instead of L-pads for the volume controlling element. This
		assures minimal internal power dissipation with virtually no
		power wasted as heat.
