I need help with selecting in-wall volume controls for in-wall speakers.
I have a Denon receiver (output is 80W per channel) that I want to connect to in-wall volume control in another room which should control the volume of the pair of speakers (80W) in that room. I also have an additional CAT V wire running from Volume control point to the receiver.
When I search online for volume controls, there are so many options that I don't know which one to pick.
Some have impedance matching. I don't know if impedance matching in volume controls is good or not.
Some are transformer-less. Is that a good thing?
Some are 120W peak/60 rms. Will that work for my 80W speakers?
Some are with IR receiver. I was thinking of changing the songs rather than going to other room to change it. Will IR receiver volume control be useful in that?
