These boxes are simple to set-up and use, and durable as hell. We use them all the time for keys and instruments, and they never let us down.

ultra quiet switching

I use one to switch channels on my Marshall & another one to switch between amps. THERE IS NO SWITCH NOISE! It's worth the cost. ps.1- unplug from the I/O port when not in use to prolong battery life.... read more [+] ps.2-when using 2 amps, make sure both are plugged into the same electrical outlet/circuit to prevent ground -loop noise. close [-]

Super Silent Switch

by Gary from Phoenix, AZ

Music Background: Recording Engineer, Professional Musician
I bought one of these to switch two guitars into one amp.

This A/B switch is a perfect addition to my stage set. I can switch from my PRS, to my Tele, with no noise at all. It's completely silent, and has no effect on the sound. This little bada$$ is virtually transparent in the signal chain. I would have rated this with five stars if the price was a little cheaper, but overall, I'm very happy I bought one. close [-]
