I have a separate headphone set with its own similar sized volume slider on it and it is infinitely better. The splitter is working great, no issue there. Maybe they fixed it with that one. I was hoping this unit would be useful for my wife and I as we travel, so she doesn't have to listen to my Blur music, or I to her classic piano concertos when we share the iPod.But what can you expect for $2.and this is a discontinued item by Griffin as it has been superceded by a newer version. But the individual volume controls - the difference between the max and min settings is a joke. I was expecting it to go from loud to near muted, but instead it is always loud to ever so slighty less louder.
My husband likes volume louder and I'm a low volume person, so these have been perfect for our needs. It saves money 'cause we only have to "buy" one movie/tv screen on the flight. Our order came in a very timely manner so we could celebrate Valentine's day flying to Seattle and watching and hearing the inflight movie. This is just the headphone splitter we have been looking for. We travel lots and when we want to watch a movie or listen to music, it is so convenient to have the Griffin SmartShare Headphone Splitter--we can watch the same movie and have our individual volume.
you don't want the "it's too loud" complaints. Perfect for hanging on a beach with a companion or even a wife :) maybe especially a wife. OK it splits the sound and gives you each a volume control. just as advertised.
I looks good, it is very functional, it is constructed well, and it keeps both listeners at a volume level they can enjoy. This is a really nice product.
If you need to increase the volume above the maximum provided by the audio device, then you need amplification and this doesn't provide that. It filled my need exactly. I just needed the ability for either listener to turn the volume down individually.
