kakapo Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 Alreet, I'm in the process of switching from a speaker/amp set up to powered monitors, but still need to be able to input multiple sources (rca, line level) to the monitors. Is there any reason why a very simple passive A/B input selector switch wouldn't do the job? Something like: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3-Way-Stereo-Audio-Input-Control-Switch-/160552882964?pt=UK_Computing_Sound_Vision_Video_Cables_Adapters&hash=item2561b29314#ht_500wt_922 Or is there a reason why I should fork out a bit more on something like this, bearing in mind my monitors have volume control on the front, and I need multiple inputs, not outputs? http://www.dv247.com/studio-equipment/sm-pro-m-patch-2-passive-volume-attenuator--51232 Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/74192-monitor-controller-ab-input-switch/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
xy_politics Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 I've used a Behringer MON800 daily for a number of years without any problems at all. 4 sources can be switched in, (loud) headphone amp, 3 speaker sets, mono switch, 20dB pad, even a talkback mic. I know (first-hand) Behringer products can be hit or miss in reliability terms but the MON800 is a hit for me. £40-45 Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/74192-monitor-controller-ab-input-switch/#findComment-1833025 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kakapo Posted June 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Thanks, but not sure if the Behringer is passive. Don't have anything against Behringer per se, but wouldn't want to stick anything active in the signal path. Not at that price point.
