SKU: OSD-SSVC4
OSD SSVC44x Zone 2x Source (Master A/B) Speaker Selector w/ 300W Volume Control, Impedance Protection
The SSVC4 is low-profile table top volume controls with individual A/B input selectors for each listening zone. The SVC300, a 300 watt autoformer volume control is utilized in each SSVC for uncompromised sound quality and performance. The screw down terminals to 14 gauge cable. The SSVC's feature 16 gauge steel construction with our durable black wrinkle powder coating and gray silk-screening. Compatible with all high-power amps up to 300W, the front-mounted master A/B switch allows you to toggle between two audio sources; for instance, switch from music streamed from your tablet or receiver with just a push of a button.
Features:
- Dual source speaker selector that distributes audio from a high current amplifier to up to six pairs of speakers or six separate zones
- Includes individual volume control knobs to raise or lower the volume of each listening zone
- Front-mounted master A/B switch lets you turn sources either on or off
- Play one pair, a combination of pairs, or all four pairs simultaneously and adjust the volume to suit each zone
- Impedance protection allows a single amplifier to safely power several pairs of speakers
- Autoformer-based operates more efficiently than resistor-based selectors
- Compact table top design or fits inside cabinets and equipment racks
- Four individual zone on/off slotted buttons for easy labeling
- Removable input/output connectors provide hassle-free hook-up
- Compatible with all high-current amplifiers up to 300W
- Accepts up to 14-gauge speaker cable
- High quality metal construction
Impedance-Matching Protection Safeguards Amplifiers
To help protect expensive audio equipment, this 4-zone high-power speaker selector includes impedance-matching frequency protection circuitry that reduces subsonic signals so you can safely drive multiple pairs of speakers without going below the amp's impedance ratings which can cause it to overheat or shut down.

I have [2 x 250W(RMS) @8 ohms] power amp and 4 pair of speakers [@8 ohms-50w RMS].All same model. SSVC4 model has impedance jumpers inside.
Is it needed to change jumper into 'x1 or x2'? There manual read, ' These settings correspond to the number of speaker pairs you will be adding to each zone and should be adjusted accordingly. The default is 4X for each.'
Is it good match with amp - ssvc4-speakers as I mentioned above?

Hi Martin:
The Impedance setting number corresponds to how many 8 ohm speakers you have connected in parallel to your Amplifier/Receiver. The SSVC4 features four outputs connected in parallel (so, 4X would be the setting if you have 3 or 4 zones hooked up). If you only connect to 2 of the zones, then the Impedance setting would be 2X. Now, If you hook up a single pair of speakers to Zone 1 and Zone 3 and then connect two pairs of speakers to both zones 2 and Zone 4 so you would have six pairs of 8-ohm speakers connected in total to the SSVC4. The setting would be 8X for all four zones. Note: If you have 4-ohm speakers you need to calculate these as two 8 ohm connections.

Is this rack mountable, as in does it come with the tabs? I have the preamp which had the ears to rack mount, so I wanted to Kane sure this came with the tabs as well
Customer Service • 12/17/2019, 2:17:43 PM
Hi Dustin:
We do not have rack mount option for the SSVC4 speaker selector. The Pre-one has rack ears built into the front face plate. I can honestly say this is the first request I have seen for rack mount ears for the SSVC4. Standard 1U rack space is 1.75", the SSVC4 is 2.75" an oddball size. I am not sure you could find universal rack mounts. Depending on the rack manufacturer there may be a shelf option available for components without rack ears.
Sorry about that

HI Dustin:
The SSVC4 does not come with Rack mount ears whereas the Preamp has a faceplate where rack ears are integrated.

Help I bought a house that has a sscv4 three sets of speakers are in the wall now i don't know about what power source I need for the ssvc4 to turn my speakers on Please help if you can
Customer Service • 12/17/2019, 2:17:43 PM
Hi Jesse:
You need an amplifier like our AMP300 or the newer Class D XMP300. Then you need to decide on a source to connect to the AMP. Can you tell me which speakers you have and which rooms? I am assuming since they used the SSVC4 which features internal Impedance matching Volume Controls then your speakers are wired directly to your central location. I can provide additional help but would need to know more about your system. There are more choices than ever for sources and more on the way. Maybe if you could send me an image of the wiring to your SSVC4. My email address is tim@osdaudio.com. Also, include a contact phone number and the time best to reach you to discuss further. I can supply you with info and wiring diagrams. Note: I am located 3 hours behind you here on the West Coast.
