3.5mm Audio Switcher - 2 Input 1 Output / 1 Input 2 Output Audio Splitter, One-Key Mute Button, No External Power Required

I have an odd computer setup. I have a tower PC that connects to a TV and a Mac book laptop. The speakers I use are literal big stereo speakers I bought over 15 years ago. So my PC is for gaming and my Mac is for work. That being said, I wanted to be able to use my nice, but old, stereo speakers on BOTH computers without having to constantly fiddling with the cables. I tried an audio cable splitter but the sound output was off. my Mac would be fine, but my PC would be way to quite, even on max sound output.So I tried this audio switcher and it works great! I am able to easily and quickly switch between my PC and my Mac for sound and the switcher has a volume dial on it too which i never thought I would use, but I actually use it quite a bit with all the annoying audio level variants on different youtube channels. It works great!The only downside is that since this is a SWITCHER, I cannot have both my PC and Mac playing audio at the same time. I knew this when purchasing it and it was a hesitation for me getting the switcher, but in the end, I am really glad I got it.

THIS is what I wanted when I was looking for a way to switch my headphones between two laptops, both running high-end audio editing/sequencing programs. I actually bought two different ones, the other came a day earlier and I was bummed because I didn’t think to order a 1/8”(3.5mm) male to male audio jack cable. I had one, but would need another to run from the output jacks on both MacBooks, into the box and my headphones into the front.The first box was relatively sleek, minimalist and has two small buttons on top, marked 1 & 2. It’s also very light as it’s made of plastic, but seemed to do the job.Then THIS one arrived today. First thing I noticed upon opening it was a high quality, woven covered audio jack cable. The next thing I noticed was the box itself. It is about half the size of what was already a pretty small (to me) splitter, but was made entirely of a durable, matte black metal. It has a great, solid feel and heft to it, there’s two small buttons on the top of the box, one on either side of a raised black, aluminum volume knob. One button allows you to switch between inputs and the other mutes all channels. This is just a really good mash-up of form and function. Worth every penny of its very inexpensive price!

I use this to switch between headset and loudspeakers, and it works. I do get slight disturbance in one of the channels if the volume is loud, but could also be my cables.Overall product is what I was looking for. Easy audio switch from 1 input channel to 2 output channels.

For me, the third time was the charm. I needed a switch to easily toggle between headphones and bookshelf speakers. I didn't want to wear out the headphone jack on my laptop constantly switching them back and forth, so I needed a device like this one.The first one I bought (another brand and model) was staticky when I'd switch. I couldn't stand it so I returned it. Then I bought one that cost a few dollars more. The reviews said it was "well made" and "constructed with good materials". When I got it, it was cheap plastic junk, and on top of that, my speakers buzzed when they weren't switched on using that box. So, try try again ... I bought this one. It cost more, but I should have just purchased this one first. It's made of heavy aluminum. The volume knob is solid and high quality, and best of all, there's ZERO scratchy noise when I switch, and there's no buzz when the speakers are switched off.This one is perfect. Don't waste your time on anything else. This is the headphone/speaker switch you want.

Bought this to switch the audio from two desktop computers through a single set of speakers. Simple hook up, works perfectly, and I like have the volume control knob right at hand. Just what I needed at a great price.

This device worked exactly as expected, with the exception of the noise it appeared to generate.Quite easy to use, pretty self explanatory, and it did it all quite well other than the noise.Ground Loop Noise filter you say? Using one. Did not eliminate the noise, but did seem to tame it slightly.Cheap solution, and I dont use my speakers much so ill hang on to it, but if your looking for something with a bit of clarity/fidelity.... might want to upscale.

Easy to use. Especially, if you use speakers and headphones on single port devices. It allows you to switch without needing to switch audio without fuss. I have had it for over 1 year without issues.

I wanted this to switch a powered subwoofer between two inputs. It does that reasonably well and is of good quality, but there are significant issues.1. The input and output ports are not on same side of box which would be much neater/tidier than having inputs on one side and output on the other.2. More importantly, the mute button introduces an annoying hum when mute is engaged. This is very annoying when using on a Sub Woofer where the hum is most noticeable.I found a better switch on Amazon: "Nobsound Little Bear MC102 Mini 2(1)-in-1(2)-Out 3.5mm Stereo Audio Switch" which has the inputs and outputs on the same side and introduces no audible hum when the mute is engaged.
