Excellent item [Posted on 2007-03-09]
Even at the lowest volume level, my Shure E4C earphones are too loud for me when I am listening to music in quiet environments. This level attenuator does an excellent job of decreasing the volume. No static is heard when adjusting the volume. Also, the volume between the two earphones remains balanced at even the lowest levels.
The instructions state that this is intended for use on airplanes only but I have not had any problems using this with my iPod nano.
Handiest gadget ever [Posted on 2007-03-16]
My husband and I were on a cross-country flight, with different brands of headphones, and we each had our own volume control. How clever!
Does the job [Posted on 2008-02-13]
I needed a little attenuator (volume control) so I didn't have to dig my mp3 player out of my pocket every time to boost or lower the volume. The first one I bought from Amazon was dead on arrival but they have a great return policy and even sent out a new one immediately while I sent the bad one back. The second one works fine and it does what it's supposed to do. I don't find any diminished quality of the music so I'm very happy with the purchase. I like the short cord too.
Worth the $10.
Does the job for computers and portable devices [Posted on 2008-06-01]
Even though the instructions say that the level attenuator is only for airline use, I use it with low-resistance headphones on my Mac and Nintendo DS. It works fine there; it lets me set the volume in the middle instead of on the very lowest notch possible.
I am not sure how durable the attenuator is; given my past experience with headphone volume controllers that look nearly the same, I would guess that you shouldn't be too hard on it. If you look at reviews of attenuators online, you may see that they can cause a loss of sound quality. I haven't noticed anything like that, but I am not a stereo aficionado, and I have kept the volume control in the middle, away from the highest reduction of volume.
works with any headphone [Posted on 2008-08-05]
it's a standard volume controller that's compatible with any headphone that uses the mini type jack for mp3 players;
it's light and made of plastic...doesn't feel cheap though;
works as advertised;
