    Excellent product! I installed it the day I received it and everything worked exactly as advertised. It's perfect and easy fix when you want to add speakers in different rooms of your home. It's so simple, it does all the work for you. A little pricey, but worth every penny!
    TOM -- federal heights, CO   6/21/2008
    This unit works as described, straight forward installation. the only down side I noticed is that you have to really turn the volume up to get the same listening volume you had without the unit, would & have recommended to friends. Tom

    My 1970's vintage amplifier/receiver works great but it is limited to driving 2 pairs of speakers at one time. This speaker selector works as advertised. I'm now able to handle all 6 pairs of my ceiling speakers at once. Great product.
    JON -- northridge, CA   2/13/2007
    Very fast, received exactly what I ordered at a good price.
    MICHAEL -- centennial, CO   7/7/2006
    Working great - just what I was looking for.
    DARREN -- mechanicsville, MD   5/31/2006
    This is an excellent quality speaker selector. Provides great control of volume levels.
    JOHN -- brookeville, MD   3/24/2006
    Very happy with price and delivery Thanks
    Kevin -- melbourne, Fl   1/18/2006
    Works great. Very sturdy, well-built, very high quality. Takes the worry out of mixing different Ohms and having your receiver overheat. You will need a very small screw driver and patience to install all the speaker wires. The connections are close together, but if you screw them in tight enough the first time, you can forget about it.
    CHARLES LA -- gaithersburg, MD   3/25/2005
    The unit is working fine. It is just what I needed to finish a job.
    ALBERT -- midway, GA   2/27/2005
    Worked as I expected
    HEATHER -- cleveland, TN   12/5/2004
    We are still building so have not connected up yet, but this is the only hardware that I have found that meets the needs that I had - no other had the capacity and the options a/b per speaker pair.
    VERNON -- houston, TX   7/11/2004
    well constructed, easy to install and performs well
    JIM -- villa park, IL   7/4/2004
    You had just what we needed. The price was right and delivery was quick for our installation. Thank you
    MILLIE -- eddyville, KY   12/17/2003
    I am extremely happy to have this item. I have speakers in five rooms on the main floor plus a set on the deck. This is the first time in five years I have had all speakers working at one time.
    DAVID -- escondido, CA   10/12/2003
