Nobsound 3-IN-1-OUT XLR Audio Switch ; Balanced Audio Converter ; 3-Way Stereo Passive Audio Selector Switcher (MC103 Pro 3-in)

this has been an awesome addition to my audio setup... works great

This Nobsound is a beautiful piece of equipment. Fantastic value! Very switchable! Light weight!!

Some images of this product appear on the internet showing "Neutrik" XLR connectors. Note that this product offering does not claim Neutrik connectors. The unit I received sported only generic XLR's. If Neutriks had been utilized, the end product price would be a lot more than currently offered.Having clarified that, the components and assembly of this XLR switch are basic, but it will work fine in audiophile or even professional environments for casual, light duty applications.I used it for an A-B test of a new DAC vs. my previously utilized DAC. I felt there was some audio improvement with the new DAC but wanted to verify that in a matched-level A-B test. The switch box permits auditioning each sound with minimal delay for switching. Since the rotary switch on this box was reported to be the make-before-break type, I used only the "X" and "Z" inputs, so that the two DACs were always completely isolated from each other.Many other reviews, including a technical measurement review on a gear-oriented website, confirm that this box does not alter or detract from the sound. That also was my experience. Having completed my A-B test, this box will be handy to keep around for occasional future need.

No frills, works decently

After upgrading a pair of powered studio monitors (Dynaudio BM5A) which only have balanced XLR inputs (which are better than RCA ports, which are unbalanced), I wanted to connect multiple sources to them but couldn't find any solution. There are many options that provide a single source connected to multiple monitors, but not multiple sources to a single set of monitors -- until I finally found this device. I now have it connected to a Pioneer FM tuner, an OPPO disk player, and a Logitech Bluetooth receiver (I used RCA to XLR cables for the tuner and the Bluetooth receiver, and Mogami XLR cables that I already had for the disk player). Selecting the different sources is very simple, and the sound quality is very good (although I use this system only for background music, so I confess haven't listened to it very closely). In short, this is a great tool for my need. At minimum, if you think it might be a good choice for you, it's worth a try -- you can always return it within 30 days if it's not as good as you had hoped.

I have been looking for a long time for a passive XLR switcher that would enable me to switch between pairs of mics. I wanted something passive that was simply going to route signal and not interfere with tone. I don't need faders and gain buffers. This box solve my use case perfectly.It has a two-piece aluminum shell. The top can be removed easily. This allowed me to drill two small holes and mount under my workstation. I then made a cheat card that I laminated and taped to my audio interface. This has allowed me to be more efficient in my workflows. I think it's going to save my cables over the long term, since I'm not pulling on them all the time.

Using xlr to rca cables to switch 2 amplifies into 2 svs sub-woofers, what I love about xlr switches is there is no cross talk in them. Normal RCA switches are not built that way, at least from what I found most produce hum. I set several presets on the svs app to allow easy switching. It's a perfect solution to running an AVR and a 2ch Stereo setup.

Solves routing problems easily. Conveniently small and unobtrusive. Unique tool and this company makes the opposite. 1 in and three out. I’ve used twice so far on gigs. It is exactly what I needed and well manufactured. Contemplating buying the 1 in 3 out version too.
