4 Input 4 Output 3.5mm Audio Switch Box, AUX Switcher, Stereo Audio Selector Box, Line Router Splitter Combiner for Home Audio

I needed some thing for my computer to be able to easily switch sound output between my earbuds and my surround speakers. The inputs for both of my devices are 3.5 mm jacks so this works perfect with my computer.I do wish that the enclosure were closed off, so that dust wouldn’t get into the circuitboard. However, the size is nice and fits right on top of my desk. It was very easy to install, and although I was expecting there to be noise and popping whenever I would switch the outputs with the dial, I’ve not experienced that so far.The only problem that I have experienced is that sometimes the output tends to fade if I press too hard on one of the 3.5 mm output jacks, almost as if it’s not soldered on perfectly. Considering the price of the product and how well it solves my problem, I still consider myself a happy customer, and I would buy it again.

It was hard to find one of these devices and this one had a good price and I like the fact it's all open. I've only noticed from switching to my pc to the macpro that I have to unplug the audio cable to establish it's connected, but I think that's a mac hardware issue only when i already have the pc on and decide to turn the mac on after. It's light weight which is good, but also a negative because the wires tend to tell the device how it's going to stay in place so it's not perfectly centered where I want it. Other than that it works great and the volume usually stays at it's max but i do hear a difference when i adjust it. Worth buying and I would buy another one when needed.

I've used a few of these fiberglass & acrylic devices and this one is the only that I've seen with 4 inputs and 4 outputs. If you're looking for something this specific, you already know the choices are limited. It's worth noting I had to pickup a buzz box for each input to work with this though. Upon plugging in the 2nd input device, a buzz was occurring and needed the buzz box to resolve that (~$8/ea). Once those arrived, I was able to route audio between two computers ending at either my desk speakers, or over to my headphones with two clicks of the dial.Quick info:Design: no idea why the dials are aligned the way they are, as the dials dont line up with each other. Maybe it's on purpose. Drives the OCD a little bit but does the job.Build quality: its a PCB and acrylic boards with relatively cheap knobs, but assembled pretty well all things considered. The PCB board is of pretty good quality tooAesthetics: you either like this sort of "open" design or you don't. I have it sitting next to a legato Wave XLR and StreamDeck which are very tidy and nice looking. With all the wires on the front and back, it's hard to have this just out and about and not want a little place for it. Suffice to say I'm working on a 3D printed enclosure for this thing because it's not the prettiest. But does it's job and does it well.

This is the second of these that I have purchased. Every feature and detail, including the markings, are of the highest quality. The switch is firm but extremely smooth, with no slop, the potentiometer is smooth with no slop. The device is precisely constructed, and the overall look of the device and the markings remind me of high quality professional controls of decades ago.

I was excited to be able to easily switch between using my computer and my turntable through my speakers, but the second input doesn’t work. If i press the button to switch inputs to input #2, i have to manually wiggle the button around in order to get any audio to come through. If i leave it, half the time it doesn't work, the other half of the time only the left channel works. Input #1 works great, i have it set to my turntable and it switches on and off, respective to which input is selected, but #2 is hopeless.

Purchased this because I needed to share a speaker system between my desktop PC and my Macbook Pro. Didn't expect much from a $7 device but I haven't had any issues in the few months that I've been using it. It's not without any flaws but the sound is fine. Turning up the volume knob to high can cause a buzzing noise. Turning the volume knob down and controlling the volume through Windows fixes that issue. My Macbook on the other hand gives up all volume controls when plugged into my dock and speakers. I can only use the knob on the splitter to control the volume. It may just be a MAC OS setting that I need to play more with. Although I appreciate good sound quality, I am no means an audiophile. For the everyday Joe, this splitter is easily a 5-star device due to its incredibly low price. I can't comment on the QC since I have only used one of these devices but it's been great for me so far.
