Leviton SGVST-W Decora Strauss Transformer, Free Volume Control, White
Leviton's Decora Strauss transformer-free and transformer- free impedance matching volume controls, combined with premium installed speakers, can be used to design a no compromise installed multi-room entertainment system that delivers the best reproduction possible from today's ultra-wide bandwidth digital sources. In multi-room distributed audio systems, the source of undesirable speaker coloration (usually perceived as a muffled sound) is often the volume control itself, because the audio transformers (AKA: auto formers) used in conventional controls can actually filter the bass and treble frequencies. The Decora Strauss transformer-free volume controls use audio-grade Cermetile resistors to change volume levels while leaving the audio signal unaffected, resulting in ruler-flat 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 amplifier on the market today. The award-winning Decora Strauss transformer-free matching controls are available in two versions: regular and impedance-matching. Should be used only with the SGAMP.
