Inline Volume Control for 3.5MM Headphones,Black

I own a Game Boy Micro and Everdrive, which is amazing until you want to play using headphones. And that's basically everywhere except home. I was faced with an awful buzzing sound due to the hardware. I tried a 3.5mm impedance adapter, but it didn't do much especially since the Everdrive draws even more power. I later discovered inline volume control and am happy to report it works perfectly! After adjusting the source volume and this unit's own controls, the buzzing is gone and I can finally use my headphones as intended. I'm also able to use Airpods via by connecting this to an Airfly. That sounds complicated considering four devices are in the mix, but I'm just happy to finally play GBA games on a plane with sound.

I play in a rock band and use in ear monitors. The IEM unit I plug my Shure ear phones into at gigs was too loud. Even with the volume pots close to zero it was too loud. So I needed a way to attenuate the volume to make the IEMs usable. This little volume knob inline between the module and my ear phones works great. I can lower the volume to just the right level and makes using the IEMs much more enjoyable for me. I notice no degradation in sound quality. I just got these so time will tell how long they last. As you can see I put some black electrical tape around the connection points as a precautionary measure. This has proven valuable in the past for other wires and cables. This wire is pretty thin so let’s see how long it lasts. Can’t beat the price. Hopefully I won’t be reporting back any problems in the future. For the price I might buy another one as a backup. So far so good.

I got this to use with my "JVC HAS160R Flat Headphones" purchased here from Amazon while listening on my laptop. It works well and being able to adjust the volume without reaching for the mouse every time the video volume changes is a relief. My only complaint is not really a complaint but as a cautionary observation: This adapter is very lightweight construction. The wire is somewhere in the 22-24 gauge range and the little wheel control is so thin it's difficult to hold except between the tips of two fingers, using my thumb tip to roll the wheel control. At least for me anyway. The construction looks good for what it is; the wheel control housing is made of hard plastic and the wire entering and exiting it are molded into the housing. Just that this adapter is so dainty looking as to make long term longevity questionable. However, it does work well and for the price it would be worth it to buy and maybe just replace when needed as long as it doesn't happen too often. For now I'm giving it three stars but would actually give it 3.5 stars if it were possible. Update June 2020: I still use this 4-5 times a week now on my home laptop and usually for 1-2 hours each time and this little adapter works as good now as when I first got it 11 months ago! I like it so much I upgraded the stars and got another one to use exclusively for travel when I use my Fire 10 tablet. I do handle them gently and may order a third one to have as a spare.

This will fit in your palm. Very small and a bit fragile looking, but works perfectly. I'm using it to attenuate the (too loud) fixed volume output from an LED TV. The knurled dial only reduces volume; will not increase it. It's inconvenient that it must be controlled near the output (at the back of the TV) but once it's set for whatever program I'm watching, I don't have to touch it again. Time will tell how reliable it is, but for now it's doing it's job properly allowing bright clear sound to pass with no static, dropouts, or other annoyances.

I am very hard of hearing but live in an apartment setting so I cannot blast the volume on my TV without disturbing my neighbors so headphones are a necessity. After going through a few pair of wireless headphones in a few short years, I got tired of shelling out more money for sub-par products that didn’t last. Even though wireless is much more convenient, if they don’t work very long, they aren’t worth it. So I resigned myself to using wired headphones except that my existing sets did not have volume control nor did the TV remote volume control work with them. They played at one volume (don’t know how it was set) that always seemed to be either too soft or too loud. Enter this little gadget which was the answer to my problem, connected fine to both the wire & my headphones (all my existing models) & it works just fine! Yay!

Great product, fantastic price, fast delivery.

este aparato me cambio la rutina, ahora disfruto cualquier tipo de audífonos cuando conecto a la televisión la salida óptica del audio.

I was happy to see that it works well with my new headphones. Wish the cord was longer. As for the volume control I found that it rotates too easily.

On time and as advertised

I ordered an inline Volume Control but what arrived was a glass replacement for an Iphone. I sent it back to Amazon. Am now somewhat reluctant to make other Amazon purchases although the inline Volume control is what I need. Not happy.
