never receivedItem was mistkenly sent back to Amazon. When I called, I was told there was "nothing they could do." They did not even ask me if I wanted to order it again.
Does the job but overpricedThe instructions for this volume control say it's intended for airline use only however I haven't had any issues with plugging it into my notebook and ipod; it's small enough to fit in the case that came with my Shure SE110 earphones so that's a plus. I suppose if you're an audiophile, you'll find something wrong with it but it works as advertised and is good for those long flights. It's great for fine tuning so highly recommended for the airplane.
OK, but too much$$I thought this was a great item until I found a volume control at Radio Shack for half the price. So it doesn't have the cool styling of the Shure, but it's 'half the price'. I bought 2 of the Shures...one for me and one for my 12 year old. Hers was broken after 3 months - hey, she's 12! Mine still works and I like it, but I got her a Radio Shack one and it has lasted her as long as the Shure already for half the price and does the same job.The Radio Shack one is a square box and about half the size of the Shure.
attenuate and remove some hissI use this between my Palm PDA and my portable headphones. The output from the palm headsphone socket is pretty hissy especially with low impedance headphones. The Shure volume control doies a pretty good job at reducing the hiss - not perfect but it is enough to make an audible difference - oh and you can use it as a volume contriol as well.
