You NEED to know - volume affected by other headphones!
You NEED to know - volume affected by other headphones!
This is a glaring omission from the product description.
>>> One person turns their headphones down, ALL other headphone volumes go UP!
>>> Unplug one headphone, the others go UP
>>> Turn up the volume of one of the headphones - others GO DOWN.
>>> Say you have your computer audio output split into headphones and a home stereo. Turn your headphones down, the home stereo goes UP - and vice versa.
Things get really complicated quick the more number of devices you plug in. This isn't the fault of the manufacturer, it is inherent in its passive design. BUT is should be stated clearly so you know before purchase.
I am imagining fights in the backseat of the car when someone turns their volume UP/DOWN to annoy everyone else!
