Amp/Speaker Selector Switches

[RCA Jack]

Good evening Gents. I was hoping I could tap into the vast AK knowledgebase. Anyway, I was wondering if any of you could recommend a good (reasonably priced) Amp/Speaker selector switch and do you prefer multi-source switches or a switch matrix? If a thread already exists on this subject, perhaps you could direct me to it? Thanks guys!

I use a similar but more basic and less expensive passive 2x6 speaker switch and it works great for my application. Mine has no headphone circuitry and no volume controls, just a rocker switch to select the amp, and six on/off push button switches for the speakers. I can't remember the brand but it is more like the 2x8 switch that is available from your linked site. I also use two Russound AB-2.2 switches, one on each of the speaker switch amp inputs, to increase my total selectable amps to four.

I use the lowly LS-3 way at the bottom of the page.
Passive and bi directional. Good selector.

I decided to go with the TC-905 (Dual Source/5 Outputs) Amp/Speaker Switch from Ambery. Appears to be a well built, heavy (10 lbs.) unit. I'll install it tomorrow and report back.

Coleman makes good stuff, and he's in NY- I went to visit him when he worked on my DATs.

Oh, and there's LOTS of threads on this subject, pretty much one per week. Search "selector".

I found a nice Audio Authority Selector, a couple years ago on Ebay. I paid $65.00 for it. I believe it has 18 or 20 sources and about the same for speaker pairs. I think there was also a few tape selector buttons. I have it put away in storage...as my vintage audio room is still in the making!! So sorry no pics!

Did you try it and report and I missed the report, or...?
Thanks
