Tactile feedback on the volume knob is excellent. Solid build quality. Great little piece of gear

It is the perfect little pre-amp control I needed for my Yamaha HS5s. Nice potentiometer with a decent knob on it. A sturdy construction that gives me confidence that it will not fall apart from moving around or repeated attach/detaching of the xlr connectors. Not to mention a nice Mute button for when I want to switch to me headphones without having to turn down the knob for no sound. And lastly an easy Mono button that I can use to ensure I have proper center imaging whenever I move my monitors around. Not to mention an inexpensive price.

Passive Control
Although it sounds contradictory, the MONITOR1 is totally passive, meaning external power is not required and there is no active circuitry to affect the purity of the analog signal coming from your mixer or audio interface. MONITOR1 doesn't get in the way of your sound source, and will not add any distortion or RF interference to your system. So whether you're recording in your bedroom or laying down tracks at a professional recording studio, MONITOR1 makes sure the volume is always exactly where you need it - when you need it. And when it's time for a break, just press the convenient Mute button to turn the sound completely off.
Sometimes Bigger is Better
Small knobs make for low precision. Conversely, the bigger the knob is, the higher the precision. Think of a knob as a circle. On a small circle/knob, the distance from one degree to the next is very small, making it difficult to dial-in perfection. On MONITOR1's big knob, the distance between degrees of the circle is much larger, allowing you to make high-precision adjustments with ease. MONITOR1's bigger knob helps you set levels fast and accurately.
Connections Matter
MONITOR1 takes up a fraction of the space on your desk as your mixer, and thanks to its tiny footprint it's never in the way. But even though it is small, MONITOR1 is all about quality, all the way from the stereo XLR/TRS combo and 1/8" Inputs to the XLR and 1/8" Outputs.
Sound Quality and Value
We designed the MONITOR1 to provide many years of super-clean, high-fidelity performance in the most critical listening environment - yours! Built from the highest-grade components, MONITOR1 is the perfect way to put a little easy into your current studio monitoring setup.
