  • Very good as a first impression. Sturdy construction.
    I didn't want it so much as a splitter but more as an amplifier.
    I powered it with the line-out of the piano (with a split cable - two mono to one stereo), and connected both my headphones and my monitor speakers to it (with two large mono jack to RCA cables).
    With the headphones (32Ω Roland RH-5 costing €35), the extra volume just barely reaches the level I wanted to achieve, with both the piano's volume knob and the amplifier's at maximum - fortunately there is no interference with the more treble-vibrant voice I use, but if I choose something more bass-heavy I hear a bit of noise at full volume.
    Edit 1: I now use the 770 Pro 80Ω, and it drives them better than the piano itself, at a volume that covers me without anything crazy.
    The speakers are self-powered so it can drive them very high, and I keep the knob in the middle for both.
    I placed it on the side of the piano furniture with adhesive velcro strips, so I can easily turn it off by removing its power, so I don't miss the lack of an on-off switch.
    Overall, it did exactly what I wanted in an easy way so I'm fully satisfied, but I deduct one star because I would expect it to be able to drive the headphones a bit higher. Probably with better, higher impedance headphones it would perform better.

    Edit 2: after various tests, it seems to color the source sound - it seems to boost and slightly muddy the bass. Confirmed with both speakers and the 770s. Attention, it's not a bad device - just be aware of its limitations. It is mainly a cheap splitter for non-critical listening, which also provides a bit of amplification.

    Don't expect any crazy amplification, it does give a little extra of course but only up to a certain point.
    I believe it easily handles headphones with 250ohms.
    The knobs are a bit tricky, it doesn't have a stereo/mono option and it doesn't work without the external power supply for a simple split.
    Overall, it's good for its price.
