Hello,
I'm interested in purchasing this older rear SAPPHIRE speaker accessory that comes with a "power switch"? Do you think I'll need one of those speaker control knobs?

Has anyone installed one of these before or has more insight as to how the switch operates in conjuction with the front speaker?

Just looking for some more information on if I'm going to be able to use this thing with my BENDIX radio.

Here are some pictures of the speaker and switch. I'll also include the installation guide to my radio and front speaker so it may help with the conversation as to how I'll be able to install the rear.

Also if anyone has any further information on this speaker that would rule! I've been on google and haven't found anything about what year it is.
thanks in advance everyone!

It's a fader and should work fine as long as both speakers have the correct impedence.

thank you! Do you have an idea on how the wiring would be ran? The front and rear speaker would run to the fader control, then the fader control to the back of the radio?
