Eight grey rectangular weatherproof volume controls with rotary dials and four mounting holes each

Goldwood Sound, Inc.

Goldwood Sound Outdoor Volume Controls Grey 8-Pack

SKU CH-78ET-DG1W8

Eight weatherproof grey volume controls with 12-step dials handle 150 watts per channel and accept up to 14-gauge wire

  • Weatherproof ABS housing protects outdoor installations
  • 150 watts per channel drives demanding speaker systems
  • 12-step dial with true off position gives precise volume control
  • Shorting bars match impedance for safe 8-pair 8-ohm connections
  • Accepts up to 14-gauge wire for flexible wiring options

Eight-channel outdoor volume controls

This eight-pack provides independent level adjustment for up to eight speaker pairs in whole-house or commercial outdoor audio systems. Each unit mounts with four screws and accepts wire up to 14 gauge through a 1-inch PVC fitting. The grey ABS housings are weatherproof and rated for in-wall use with CL3 certified speaker wire. Installers can configure the shorting bars to match 4, 8, or 16-ohm speaker loads safely.

Passive design with impedance matching

The low-voltage passive circuitry requires no external power and installs easily for DIY or professional setups. Shorting bars on each control ensure the amplifier sees a safe impedance when multiple 8-ohm pairs are connected. Heavy-duty ABS construction protects the internals from moisture and temperature extremes in outdoor environments. The dial operates smoothly across its range without adding active noise to the signal path.

Twelve-step attenuation with true off

Each rotary dial delivers 12 discrete attenuation steps and a genuine first-position off setting for complete silence. The controls handle up to 150 watts per channel, accommodating high-output amplifiers in distributed audio installations. Independent ground terminals allow compatibility with any amplifier topology using raw speaker wire outputs. Housing dimensions are 2.75 by 4.5 by 2.75 inches with four mounting holes for secure attachment.

Questions about this item

How do I install these volume controls and what is the step people most often get wrong?

Mount the ABS housing with its four screw holes and run CL3-rated speaker wire through the 1-inch PVC fitting; the step often missed is setting the shorting bars to match your speaker impedance before closing the cover.

What maintenance or replacement will these outdoor controls need over time?

The passive design has no batteries or electronics to service; only the weatherproof seals and dial mechanism may need inspection after years of exposure, and the unit carries a lifetime warranty against manufacturer defects.

What is the first limit I will hit when running these at high volume for long periods?

Each channel handles 150 watts, so sustained output above that level will be the first constraint; the 12-step dial with a true off position lets you stay below the limit.
