3 in 1 Out RCA Stereo Audio Source switcher Switch Signal selector Splitter schalter Connector Distributor Box

I was hesitant buying this no-name splitter, as I have had bad experiences in the past with similarly cheap audio devices on Amazon. But this thing is doing its job, which is simply to route one of 3 stereo inputs to one stereo output. I am using it with two vintage cassette decks and an audiophile CD player and I can't hear any quality loss on my system after several A/B tests (I've got decent gear too including a Topping amp and Audioengine speakers). The splitter is passive, so there is no active signal from, for instance, a power supply or board capacitor, that would interfere with your analog signal. While it's certainly possible some of these units were made inconsistently, leading to the negative reviews, mine is fine, and it's also possible people are using low quality RCA cables or have inherently bad/defective RCA outs on their gear. Whatever the case may be, for the extremely low price, it's worth a purchase to see if it works in your audio system.

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.

I picked up this handy little AUX Switch Box to tidy up my work from home / gaming desk setup and allow me to easily switch between my speakers, headphones, personal computer, and company laptop. The unit does exactly what I wanted it to do, but I did want to confirm that thanks to its simple design you will likely need to add a ground loop isolator ($4-8 ea) for each input beyond your first one.The 3.5mm jacks feel tight, and paired well with the random assortment of 3.5mm cables I've accumulated over the years. The selector knobs have reasonably positive detents, the aluminum knobs feel nice enough, and the overall package performs nicely. It even looks at home next to my inexpensive Bravo Audi headphone amp.My only real gripes are the lack of ground loop isolation on the inputs, and the layout of input and output jacks. It would have been a lot tidier if there were two inputs and two outputs on the front and back of the device to keep my back-of-desk arrangement nice and tidy, but I understand that it would have taken more work to get the PCB to layout nicely.Overall, I'm giving the switch box a 5/5 stars because it does its job, I was aware of the potential flaws with the ground loop isolation, and its affordable as all getout. I could have made something myself, but for this price, why bother?Pros:- Inexpensive- Allows easy switching between inputs AND outputs- Attractive, minimalist packageCons:- Some feedback if there are multiple grounded input devices- Input/Output jacks leave room for improvementNeutral:- You gotta install your own rubber feetRecommended Improvements:- Integrate a ground loop isolating transformer if space permits- Have 2 inputs and 2 outputs on the rear of the switch instead of 4 inputs on the rear, and 4 outputs on the front.

As one reviewer stated, you wouldn't think so, but it's kinda hard to find a switcher like this! So, my use case is I have a PC that has two sets of speakers attached to its single 1/8" output jack. One is a pair of little PC speakers. This other pair is bookshelf speakers connected to a stereo system via a Bluetooth transmitter that also connects to the laptop's 1/8th output jack. I "switched" between these two speaker pairs by yanking wires in/out of the laptop's single 1/8" output jack. This is very nicely made, sensibly priced, works perfectly, and even includes a volume control. Expectations exceeded. Pleased as punch. No more crude yanking of wires. Now I switch between the two speaker sets in civilized fashion with the press of a button. It truly is the little things in life, ya know?

-FlakyThe button that switches between sources is completely unreliable. I have to press it many times to get the switch to select the B source.-NoisyI hear high frequency background noise that is well above any normal signal to noise ratio for modern audio equipment. I was able to suppress the low frequency 60 cycle hum by running an extra ground connection from my computer to the switch. (I have not dealt with the 60 cycle problem in decades. This is a solved problem.)Full disclosure: I bought this a year ago and do not expect a dialog or recompense from the vendor. The shortcomings I am experiencing are not a problem of storage. The problems are due to the poor quality of the product. I have not approached the manufacturer for a replacement.

For the Money (~20), this is the one to get. Negatives are the design (may be a pro for some going for that function over form look), location of the ports on 3 sides of the device, and the light weight can cause some thicker cables to put leverage on it. Pro is it does what it needs to very well! Smooth Pot, no noise during switching, No bleed over from other inputs on the main channel (some of the other cheap RCA switches bleed terribly; even ones on here that cost twice as much), and no perceivable added noise in my setup.
