Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Koss VC20 Volume Control
Customer Review: EXCELLENT PRODUCT
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this to replace a unit that came free with some helmet speakers, this thing works great, much better than the unit it replaced. You can't beat the value for the price!Customer Review: Very cool mp3 player accessory
Summary: 5 Stars
I ride a scooter (aka Vespa) and it is inconvenient to reach the volume control of my mp3 player while I'm riding, so I decided to buy this and so far I'm pleased. I love how I can clip it on my shirt and easily access it. One thing to mention is that it does not amplify sound so it will only go as loud as the music player can go. I believe there is no degradation in sound quality so that is great. Overall I'd recommend it based on my experience.Customer Review: Just what I needed

If you're like me, you use your fancy expensive noise-canceling headphones at work to block out distractions. Some light jazz, trance, or classical music from Pandora or my external hard drive helps, but having the volume up too high is more distracting than not using the head phones at all. Turning down the volume to non-distracting levels allows you to hear a background hum or hiss generated from the computer or the external amp that I plug my headphones into. Well, this handy-dandy gadget, at half the price of similar devices, solves that problem. By turning up the volume on the computer (not too high) and lowering the in-line volume control provided by this device, I can get just the volume I want, without the distracting noise. Plus, the 3' extension gives me a little extra room to move around without jerking the headphone cable all the time. The volume control is smooth and noise-free, smoothly adjusting the volume from zero to full with one rotation of the compact dial inset into the mechanism. It has a little metal clip you can use when jogging or working out. I highly recommend this device. Customer Review: It's good and it's cheap

I have 3 of these. One on an iPod which is still loud with my in-ear headphones, and two are on TVs that don't have a separate volume control for audio-out.
I generally care how things sound, and I haven't noticed any frequency distortion. But I haven't really been listening for it either. For most people the sound quality will be just fine.
For those complaining about high-frequency attenuation, is there another product that does a better job? Does it cost less than $10?
Customer Review: a nice device

I purchased this to hook up to my headphones that do not have a line level control. For its purpose it is fine.I am not an audiophile so I cannot comment on how good or bad the sound is. Seems fine to me but I have bad hearing anyway. The one I got did not have a curved jack as pictured but rather a straight one, no problem. I use this on my laptop and I have noticed that if I want to reach the louder setting I first have to turn my laptop up to one of the higher settings and then I can go up or down with the Koss. Overall I think it was a good purchase.
