Beale Xpress® VCRI Autoformer Based Impedance Matching Rotary In-Wall Volume Control w/ White & Almond Inserts
Even the best multi-room audio system is no good if you can’t control it. That’s where this volume control comes into play. The VCRI is an impedance matching, rotary style volume control that is designed to be installed within the wall for optimum convenience. And because it comes with two different colored decora inserts, it possesses the aesthetics needed for any professional installation – whether residential or commercial.

Multi-Room Control
Because the VCRI is an automatic impedance matching volume control, multiple Xpress Volume Controls and speaker pairs can be connected to an appropriate powered amplifier, and controlled via the VCRI. There are no jumper or switch settings as long as the overall load does not exceed the amp’s capability. Up to 6 Volume Controls with one pair of 8 Ohm speakers per VC can be connected to a 4 Ohm capable amp, and up to 4 pair of 8 Ohm speakers can be connected in parallel to a single Volume Control connected to a 2 Ohm capable amp.

High-Performance Autoformer
What sets the Beale Volume Control apart from the crowd is its unique use of a high-performance autoformer. An autoformer (short for autotransformer) is unlike standard transformers in that it provides a much higher quality of sound and control with no loss of highs and lows that you might experience with conventional impedance-matching transformers. Better than even the best potentiometer or stepped attenuator, it has such an effortless sound that you might not consider ever going back a resistive device. This innovative volume control design meets the high quality that expect from Beale Xpress, and is a great complement to their in-ceiling speakers and subs.
