NXG Technology NX-VMS1003C - Slide Style Impedance Matching Volume Control User Manual
Model nx-vms1003c
Thank you for choosing the NXG NX-VMS1003C slide style impedance matching volume control.
The NX-VMS1003C has a unique adjustable design which allows it to be used as an impedance matching stereo volume control when 2x, 4x,
8x or 16x switch positions are selected, or as a standard stereo non-impedance matching volume control when 1x switch positions are
selected (Note: 1x positions are for use with impedance matching speaker selector or other impedance matching device). When the impedance
matching switch positions are selected, this design enables you to connect up to 16 pairs of 8-ohm speakers or 8 pairs of 4-ohm speakers to
an 8-ohm stable amplifier and operate them simultaneously without the fear of amplifier overload, eliminating the need for a speaker selector
or other impedance matching device.
(Note that when using a 4-ohm stable amplifier, you can connect up to 32 pairs of 8-ohm speakers or up to 16 pairs of 4-ohm speakers.)

Wiring and Installation
First determine the minimum operating impedance of the
amplifier to be used in your installation. This information
should be in your amplifier owner’s manual. Using the
speaker chart at right choose the proper position for the
impedance matching jumpers (see Fig. 1) and put jumpers
in correct position.
