Specification

FEATURES
• Decora slide control with precision 12-positon switch (including
full OFF position)
• Transformer-Free attenuation technology ensures linear
frequency response, signal integrity, and high-power handling
• Cermet resistors replace conventional autoformers to preserve
audio signal purity
• Detachable cable connector is compatible with all standard
speaker wire sizes (14-18 gauge)
• Decora designer styling adds an elegant touch to any décor
• Provides the ability to adjust the volume of a pair of stereo
speakers within a single listening zone
• Impedance-matching volume control provides multi-room
distribution without the necessity of external impedance
-matching devices (SGVSM-00W only)
• Adjustable impedance settings enable conguring systems from
two-six controls (SGVSM-00W only)
DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
• Can be used outdoors when mounted with any compatible
Decora all weather cover
• Designed to be mounted in a single-gang wallswitch box
• Connector type: 0.200-inch 8-pin in-line straight Phoenix plug
with screw terminals

APPLICATION
Leviton Decora Strauss Transformer-Free Volume
Controls, when combined with premium installed
speakers, can be used to design a no-compromise
multi-room entertainment system that delivers the best
reproduction possible from today’s ultra-wide bandwidth
digital sources. The volume controls are available in
two versions: regular and impedance matching.
In multi-room distributed audio systems, the source of
undesirable speaker coloration (perceived as a mufed
sound) is often the volume control itself, because the
audio transformers (autoformers) used in conventional
controls lter the bass and treble frequencies. The
Decora Strauss Transformer-Free Volume Controls
use audio-grade cermet resistors to change volume
levels while leaving the audio signal unaffected,
resulting in ruler-at frequency response across the
entire audible frequency range. Moreover, the Decora
Strauss Transformer-Free Volume Controls eliminate
the problem of saturation associated with conventional
volume controls with their ability to instantaneously
handle the full peak output power of any consumer-
grade amplier on the market.
