Monoprice 108244 RMS 50W Speaker Volume Controller - White

The Monoprice 108244 is a slider-type in-wall volume controller designed for distributed audio systems where you want room-by-room volume adjustment without reaching for the main amplifier. Rated at up to 50 watts per channel, it sits between your amplifier and a single pair of stereo speakers, providing 12 discrete volume positions from off to full output. The slider mechanism offers a more visual and tactile way to set levels compared to rotary knobs, and its frequency response of 35Hz–20kHz (+0/−2dB) ensures that audio fidelity remains largely intact across the audible spectrum.

Installation follows a standard single-gang low-voltage format, so it integrates neatly alongside light switches and other wall controls. The unit accepts 14–16 gauge speaker wire and supports speaker impedance from 4 to 16 ohms, covering the vast majority of passive bookshelf and ceiling speakers used in residential and commercial distributed audio setups. While it lacks impedance-matching circuitry and is limited to a single speaker pair, the Monoprice 108244 is a practical and affordable solution for adding localized volume control in offices, kitchens, patios, or any room that benefits from independent audio adjustment.
