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

- 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 a 260 W amp with matching 4 ohm speakers and a sub woofer and would like to add outside speaker. Would this unit work with what I have and if so could you recommend a set of outside water proof speakers that will work

Hi Ken:
Your question creates additional questions. What 240 Watt Amplifier do you have (Brand and model number)? 4-ohms speakers (Brand and Model), one or two pairs? What is your preference for outdoor speakers, Rocks, Garden or Patio speakers? The SSVC4 will work for your application but need to no more so I can help connect your system.

I have a Samsung MX-E650CB advertised 260 Watt receiver/ Amp, with 2, same brand matching 4 Ohm speaker and a sub woofer. I want to add two more outside speakers and possibly more later on And want to know if this speaker control will work with what I have

I Just hooked up this product. I have it running 3 sets of outdoor speakers. I pair of Definitive aw 6500s and 2 pairs of Advent Marbl2s. It's being driven by an old 50-watt receiver. Zones 1 & 2 work great but I can't get zone 3 to operate. When I switch the wires around I can get the zone 3 speakers to work from the zone 1 terminals. Any thoughts?
Customer Service • 12/17/2019, 2:17:43 PM
Hi Mike:First, try connecting the Zone 3 wires to Zone 4. See if that is working ok. Internally there are two jumpers that handle the Impedance Matching per zone (right and left transformers). There is a possibility that the jumpers came loose on Zone 3. I am going to send you an image of the internal setup of the SSVC4. There are 6 pins per each of the eight channel. The Pin setting should be 4X pins 4 and 5. There are 12 small screws that hold the cover in place. I would first determine if Zone 4 works. I would remove the cover (if you are comfortable with that) just unplug the input/output connectors before starting. It is a passive switching box with no AC Power Supply to deal with. Check if the jumpers are in place. Then let me know if that is the issue.tim@osdaudio.com

I have two Niles SI-250 amps that deliver 50 watts/ch at 8 ohms, 75 watts/ch at 6 ohms and 100 watts/ch at 4 ohms. I have 4 pairs of Yamaha NS-AW150 speakers which are 6 ohm, 120W max, 35W nominal. I plan on hooking up one amp to each input on the SSVC4, and one pair of speakers to each zone on the SSVC4. I'll run zones 1 & 2 on one amp (A source) and zones 3 & 4 on the other amp (B source), both amps playing same input signal. the question is, how do I set the internal jumpers on the SSVC4 for this setup?
Customer Service • 06/07/2021, 3:51:23 AM
Hi Ed:
The safe bet is selecting 2X pins 2 and 3. But the Niles amps claim to go down to 2.67 ohms, and you are only powering two pairs for each so that you could go down to 1X pins 1 and 2 on all four zones, both left and right channels. TimL/6-6-21

Do you by chance have the Room Label Sheets that ship with the SSVC4 available to sell separately? I am relabeling a couple of rooms and no longer have the original sheet of room labels. Thank you!

Hi Rod:
We do not sell these sheets separately but have been selling them for many years and may have some available in the RMA department. Call 562-697-2600 and press 3 for product support.
