    How to fix low volume on Valcom V-1040 Speakers?
    • I
      ischaeferAug 11, 2025
      If you're getting low volume from your Valcom Speakers, make sure the volume control is turned up. Also, check the voltage at the speaker assembly during use; it should be between -18 to -24VDC. You can also use a lineman's test set to check for the correct audio level on the Tip and Ring leads. Note that some low-level audio might be heard with only one side of Tip and Ring connected.

      If you are experiencing loud squealing (feedback) from your Valcom Speakers, try the following: * First, turn down the speaker volume counter-clockwise. * Second, increase the distance between the telephone and the speaker. * For severe cases, consider installing a noise-canceling handset on the telephone. * You may also consider adding a V-9962 Digital Feedback Eliminator.
