The SCW-1D is a wall-mount, Decora® style speaker volume control. It connects between the speaker-level output of an amplifier, speaker selector, etc. and a pair of speakers. A perfect application for the SCW-1D is adjusting the volume of remotely located speakers.
The SCW-1D adjusts the volume of speakers connected to it by attenuating the amplifier signal. Niles volume controls use autoformers instead of L-pads for the volume controlling element. The autoformers assure minimal internal power dissipation with virtually no power wasted as heat.
