Review on ๐ŸŽฎ CKLau Ultra HD 2 Port HDMI 2.0 Cables KVM Switch: High-Resolution Audio and USB Hub for Windows, Linux, Mac, Raspbian, Ubuntu by Mike Mitchell

Revainrating 1 out of 5

The thing ruins the sound quality, the bass is very weak

I am very disappointed because this KVM switch has all the functions I need and the price is reasonable. It works exactly as intended, except for one thing: when the audio from my sources goes through the KVM switch to my speakers, all bass is removed. This doesn't work for me because I want to use this switch on a music workstation. I have attached a video. In real life the difference is MUCH bigger: my phone's camera mic didn't pick up the sound well. You might not notice a difference either, unless you're listening to videos on a system with good bass. I've tried my best to film the output, but what you're seeing looks like a "copy of a copy". When I analyzed what I recorded in Audacity, it turned out that when I connected my laptop directly to the speakers, the deepest bass sounded about 10dB louder. I gave this device two stars because everything else is great. It's a shame that the bass cuts off so badly.

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • Only available in black
