This is a whole house distributed audio wiring diagram showing amplification that is run through passive volume controls before continuing on to the speakers. Also attempting to wire two 8 ohm speakers in parallel to an 8 ohm stereo would have the same effect.
Zb 8525 Volume Control Wiring Diagram For Speaker Schematic
Speaker volume control wiring diagram. Adding sub to factory. Run a speaker cable probably two one for left side and one right side from the amplifier to the volume control. A home stereo for example may often list 6 16 ohms as being ok for use. Using a volume control is very common in both residential and commercial audio installations. To build this speaker circuit we connect the 1kω audio taper potentiometer to the speakers. The recommended speaker impedance ratings are usually listed above the speaker wire posts.
The potentiometer must be a log taper. Wiring these volume controls is fairly simple. Then run a speaker cable from the volume control to each speaker. This system allows you to adjust the volume right in the room you are in plus an integrated ir receiver will let you control your source devices if needed. The red wire is the positive terminal and the black wire is the negative or ground terminal. 2 amps 1 sub.
Building the speaker circuit with adjustable volume. Image of the rear of a home stereo receiveramplifier. Remember to allow a volume control for the lounge room speakers so they can be controlled also. Using a volume control gives you total control of multiple speakers at one time. 4 channel plus sub.
