Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Plantronics PC Headset Speaker Switch
Customer Review: Does its job very well
Summary: 5 Stars
No complaints at all. for its price, this is must have if you play games or listen to music at nights. with just one click, you can toggle between speaker and headset. No more unplugging and plugging headsets.Customer Review: Works as expected, but not to full potential
Summary: 4 Stars
This little device is really helpful for switching audio hardware quickly. I bought it to switch on to voice chat so that others in the house would not have to hear all the chatter that comes with gaming. I also wanted an easy way to switch back to the computer speakers. This product accomplishes its purpose pretty effectively. As another reviewer mentioned, it is a slight drawback that moving to speaker mode switches off the microphone. If you plan to use your microphone in conjunction with your speakers (that is... you are not using a headset mic and don't have feedback problems) then this product is not that helpful to you.
Anyhow, the construction is just fine, though it feels a bit cheap. In summary, it does what it is supposed to do. But it could be better.
Customer Review: Working fine as expected
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a simple little device that works as advertised. Nothing fancy, but if provides a way for me to switch between external PC speakers and the headphone/mic. For general purposes, this setup works great. I'm not an audiophile, but have not noticed any degradation in sound quality by inserting this switch into the connection path. The switch mechanism feels solid; a solid surface is needed for the device. One improvement would be softer or "stickier" rubber feet to prevent sliding around.Customer Review: Ok at best

This didn't really do what i wanted. I still wanted to be able to use a mic when on speakers. Radioshack has one available (in most stores or online) that is identical to this, except when you are on computer speaker mode you can plug a cell phone/cordless phone headset in and use that as your mic, much preffered for me.Customer Review: good product
Summary: 4 Stars
I was tired of reaching behind the desk in order to unplug the speakers and plugging the headphones in (my front headset connectors don't work), so this device came to the rescue. It's simple, but it does exactly what you need. It doesn't get 5 stars because of the following reason: 1) microphone jack is not active when set to output sound to the speakers. They should have added 4 jacks, two for mics and two for audio out. 2) it's too light. The mere weight of the wires is enough to make it tilt backwards on the desk. My solution was, at first, to move it further closer to me (more wires showing, ick). The second solution was to tape it down to the desk.
