set the volume to minimum.
2. On the right side of the SVL-6's front panel is a button
labeled PROTECTION. This button activates the SVL-6's
impedance correction circuitry. The circuitry assures that
your receiver or amplifier will see a safe operating load

most receivers and amplifiers are not rated for use below a
4 ohm load, you will need to activate the PROTECTION
button whenever the overall system impedance might fall
below 4 ohms. Use the following chart as a guide for set-
