Summary: As Advertised
Review: A simple device. Plugs into the sound card and allows you to choose either the computer speakers or a headset. Works well when the kids want to play computer games with the volume up. The switch has been attached to my PC for four months. It does what the product description says it will do. It is easy to hook up.

Summary: Not bad
Review: Everything seemed to hook up fine, but I only had one speaker working when I tested the unit. At first I thought it was just a loose wire, but after checking everything I was about to give up. I had to unconnect everything and went back to my old setup but... I ended up with the same problem, one speaker working. I had to reinstall my sound card and then the PC Speaker Headset Switch worked fine. I'm not sure if the unit any thing to to do with my sound card messing up, but oh well. After all this the Switch box works great and the audio sounds perfect.

Summary: Only one flaw...
Review: Great product, but with one glaring discrepancy: The microphone port is disabled when the switch is set to speaker output. This assumes the user won't use a microphone simultaneously with speakers, which in fact I do quite often. Other than that, a very handy device.

Summary: Exactly what I needed!
Review: I am a professional graphic artist and avid gamer as well. But because of my desk setup it's extremely difficult to keep trying to crawl under my desk and switch headphones to speakers. Answer? I searched for the company that produces my great headphones - Plantronics. This switch is perfectly suited for my needs. Simple to hook up, intuitive, and great sound. For those who complained about mono out of this switch I would advise making sure that you have it plugged in properly and all the way. The switch works just fine, stereo and all. No complaints! Thanks Plantronics!

Summary: No Stereo
Review: I purchased the said item and it was a gift from above. I could play games with the headset, then listen to music through the speakers.
Then I realised that it eliminates Stereo sound.
This means that I don't know if that bad guy is coming from the left or the right of me.
Not very useful at all.
It is now unplugged, and i'm back with headset only.

Summary: It didn't live up
Review: If you have any other sound card than an extremely basic one, this is not for you. As stated in another review you lose stereo sound when this device is hooked up. I have a high quality sound card with 5.1 and when this device is set to speakers, it only comes out of the left channel speakers. When it is set to headset, it comes out of the headset and the right channel speakers. There was not enough info on the product to find this out before you hooked it up and tried it. Mine is going back.

Summary: It does have stereo
Review: Other reviews claiming mono are wrong - when I first plugged it in I too noticed all the sound coming out of only 1 channel. However I then pushed the plug fully and firmly in and it works fully in stereo confirmed by several tests and hasn't reverted back.Sound quality? I bought 2 of these, since I have surround sound headphones (Zalman 5.1s) and good speakers (Klipsch Promedia 4.1s) to switch between. This is combined with an Audigy 2 ZS sound card so I was very concerned about losing any quality. After comparing several sources (mp3's, speaker tests, games) with and without the switch, I'm personally not able to discern any difference in sound quality so far in the hours I've used it. In short works in stereo and can save a lot of hassle constantly changing plugs in the back of your PC. Definitely recommended.

Summary: Works perfectly!
Review: Simple and straight forward, this speaker headset switch lives up to its description. My only "gripe" about this switch is that I wish it had the outlet for an extra mic so if I wanted to switch from my headset to a speaker/desk mic combo...
