(WVC-LITE) Wireless Volume Controller - LITE
Description
The WVC-LITE (wireless volume controller lite) is our most affordable and most compact wireless volume control solution. For a more advanced version, please see the WVC or WVC-PRO.
A "wireless bass knob" runs over a custom protocol on the 2.4ghz band (with dedicated 20.5dBm transmitter and 6dBi omnidirectional antenna) to give you long-range mission-critical style control over the volume of your system.
You no longer have to endure the brunt of your monstrous ear-shattering system while giving demos. Step outside of your cabin and control your volume with this wireless knob!
Features
|
Wireless volume control |
Our encrypted, long-range, channel hopping AuralSync™ protocol enables you to wirelessly monitor and control your system from up to 500 feet away! |
| Long Battery Life | Intelligent auto shut-off and power-saving modes ensure your bass knob can last for days between charges! The unit will restart within milliseconds to give you near instantaneous control after wakeup. |
|
Wireless Over The Air (OTA) firmware updates |
Receive new features wirelessly using built-in over-the-air (OTA) updates using the AuralSync ™ App. |
|
Full Range |
Flat frequency response and stable attenuation from 5hz to 30khz |
|
USB-C Charging |
Simply plug in the included USB-C cord into any USB outlet to charge your wireless knob |
|
High-Quality Aluminum Case |
High-quality, compact, and durable case keeps the base unit protected and cool to ensure years of reliable operation. |
|
15 Volt +/- RCA signal level support |
Serious bassheads may run high voltage RCA drivers / DSP's, which easily reach 15-volt peak-to-peak AC signal levels. Our controller reaches this level and adds even more overhead by supporting a full 15V +/- RCA line level! |
| Intelligent Drive System® | Automatically throttle your volume when your voltage drops too low or your temp is too high (PRO only)Video |
| Competition Mode | Automatically throttle your volume when your knob disconnects (battery dies, our of range, etc...)Video |
| Line Driver | Amplify incoming RCA voltage by up to 35.5 db (15v max) to overcome signal limit of some head units Video |

Why use a wireless bass knob?
In general, we believe that traditional bass knobs with long RCA runs hurt your system, regardless of manufacturer. Yes, there are quality differences between brands, but the fundamentals are the same. They're all fighting the same uphill battle.
Traditional knobs sit inline with your RCA cables between the source and amplifier. That means your audio signal is running 15-20 feet through the car, picking up noise from the alternator, ignition system, fuel pump, and whatever else is along the way.
Even quality shielded cables, or the RJ11 style knobs that come with your amplifier, can't fully stop it (we've shown this in test videos). And the longer that run, the better your chances of noise creeping in.
Then the signal passes through a mechanical potentiometer. It works fine at first, but those contacts wear out over time as you twist and turn the knob. You start getting scratchy adjustments, channel imbalance (yes, one side can wear out faster than the other), and intermittent cuts. Temperature swings speed that process up as materials expand and contract. We've all dealt with it.
This is why we built what we believe is a superior bass knob, the WVC (Wireless Volume Controller).
The audio signal cable stays short and controlled right at the amplifier. The wireless knob only sends control data, not audio, so interference never touches your music.
We also use the best available components on the market, which adds real functionality. The WVC doubles as a line driver, delivers 0.00045% THD+N, and 110dB SNR. Compare that to your noisy RCA bass knob that's been picking up EMI the whole time.
No pots to wear out. No cables picking up noise. No compromise.
