    The SSVC6D dual source 6-pair speaker selector with volume controls is one of our most popular models because it's the perfect fit and price for a wide range of distributed audio systems and includes features found on selectors that cost three times as much. Made of high quality metal cast construction and compact enough to fit tablet top, this versatile speaker selector connects six pairs of speakers or 12 speakers total and puts you in control of which zone to play and at what volume level. 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 six 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
    • Six 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
    Professional-Level Whole House Audio at a DIY Price
    This durable 6-zone speaker selector will accommodate many distributed audio systems and is limited only by your imagination. Control your outdoor rock speakers and patio system with outputs 1 and 2, dining room and kitchen speakers with outputs 3 and 4, etc., to create a professional-level whole house system. The SSVC6D is also well suited for commercial applications such as restaurants where the bar area may have higher volumes than the dining rooms and restrooms.

    Impedance-Matching Protection Safeguards Amplifiers
    To help protect expensive audio equipment, this 6-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.

    Designed for Ease of Use and Installation
    Connecting 12 speakers is a tedious and frustrating chore which is why the SSVC6D includes removable input and output connectors that accept up to 14-gauge speaker cable. The heavy-duty connectors unplug from the back so you can strip and insert the wires systematically without confusion of what speaker wire is going to what zone. For added convenience, the individual on/off buttons are slotted so you can label each of the listening zones.

    GM • 12/17/2019, 2:17:43 PM My family room was custom-wired for 2 pair of indoor and 1 pair of outdoor/patio speakers to play off of an indoor receiver. I've recently added another pair of outdoor speakers and will be adding an outdoor receiver to be its source. So from the patio standpoint, I have: A pair of speaker wires coming from my indoor receiver (we'll call these Speaker A). A pair of speaker wires coming from my (soon to be) outdoor receiver (for Speaker B). Thus I have 2 pairs of patio speakers (Speakers A & B). Would this SSVC6D 6, or another device you'd recommend allow me to switch Speaker A's audio source between the indoor and outdoor receivers? It would be nice to listen to the outdoor receiver thru all (4) patio speakers, yet not lose the ability to switch over to my indoor receiver despite it only coming from 1 pair of speakers (Speaker A) at the touch of a button. Hope I didn't confuse you.

    HI GM; The SSVC6D; although a dual source speaker selector it has limitations where you can only play one source or the other. You could not be listening to your two pair of outdoor speakers on Source A and then you internal speakers on Source B. It features a Master A/B switch either A or B but not A and B. That is the bad news the good news is the SSVC4 is what you are looking for since it has independent A or B source switches per each pair of speakers or each zone. That will allow you to connect your two sources and listen to source A (inside receiver) for your inside speakers and then listen to Source B (your outside Receiver) on your two outdoor pair of speakers. You also have room to add another pair of speakers either inside or outdoors and the Internal Volume Controls handle the impedance Matching which protects the amplifiers/Receivers (both A and B). Good Luck TL/4151
    Josh • 12/17/2019, 2:17:43 PM I just purchased two of these switches as I'm building my whole house audio system now. Does this switch use a transformer or resistors to match impedance?
    Customer Service • 12/17/2019, 2:17:43 PM
    Hi Josh: The SSVC6D uses a Transformer type Impedance matching internal Volume Control for each zone. There are jumper settings that can be changed for each internal VC depending upon you application. There are not Resistor based volume controls that have Impedance Matching capability. Our ISS and DSM series Speaker Selectors feature internal Protection using sandstone resistors. But it cuts the power handling capability in half when you enable the internal protection; 140 watts without and only 70 watts with protection enabled. Typically we recommend using impedance Matching Volume Controls to handle the protection. In those cases we instruct you to make sure the internal protection of the switcher is disabled (the off position). TL/4198
    mark • 12/17/2019, 2:17:43 PM can I use the pin type connectors to this unit , it appears they may be to big to use every connection, I have run 12ga wire for my speakers, not sure if that will fit this unit
    Customer Service • 12/17/2019, 2:17:43 PM
    Hi Mark: You are correct that the inputs will not accept a 12 gauge wire in the input/output connectors. You can use speaker wire pins but need ones that are narrow due the closeness of the connections of the removable connectors. Phoenix Gold used to have what they called flexi pins which would be perfect for this application. We do have the AR pins part number AR-AP396 (.99 cents). TL/4236
    WYMAN DEEMER • 12/17/2019, 2:17:43 PM I have two receivers,one a sony home theather. the other a Yamaha receiver. I would like to use my front speckers on both receivers . is there a switch for this. I have polk tower speckers. I would like use them for both.
    Customer Service • 12/17/2019, 2:17:43 PM
    Hi WYMAN: There maybe two options, checkout the SSVC1 Speaker selector with built in Volume Control. It has dual source A or B input. And an on /off switch and Source A or B switch as well. Plus a volume knob to attenuate the volume level. basically you are turning the sound down, there is no gain. The other option is using our SVC-405 Volume Control that has two stereo inputs and a single stereo output. Both options will switch between your two receivers. TL/4273
    Ken • 12/17/2019, 2:17:43 PM How to set jumpers? I have the OSD-SSVC6D Stereo Speaker Selector and I'm not sure how to set the jumpers. I have 7 pair of 8ohm speakers, 1 pair each for zones 1-5 and 2 pair 8ohm wired in parallel (4 ohm load). My amp is 110 watts per channel and can handle an 8-16 ohm load. Should jumpers be set to 1x, 2x, 4x, or 8x? Do I set all the same or set the channel with 4 ohm load differently?
    Customer Service • 12/17/2019, 2:17:43 PM
    Hi Ken: Based upon your application I think you need to set all six impedance settings to 8X (pin 5 and 6 behind each Volume Control internally). So you will need to open up the cover to access the pins. That setting will be on the safe side based upon your description of the 110 watt an 8 to 16 ohm amplifier. I am hoping your are not planning on connecting these to a Audio Video Receiver Zone 2 Speaker Level output, channel 6 and 7.Typically Zone 2 output using the internal amplifier of the AVR is meant only to drive a single pair of speakers just like it would if it were connected to a pair of surround speakers. All seven channels are using a common Power Supply and by connecting multiple speakers you are taxing the system. That is why we also recommend using one our two High Current Amplifiers either the AMP200 or AMP300. These are connected directly to the Zone 2 Pre amp output from the AVR. There is also a speaker level input on both of these amplifiers in case you do not have a pre amp output on the AVR. In that case you would connect Zone 2/Surround Speakers channel 6 & 7 to the High Level input). Plus if you use one of these two amplifiers you can safely set the impedance matching to 4X for all six Volume Controls. Good Luck; TL/4321
