Gefen

Don't you just hate it when you're watching TV, a commercial break comes on and suddenly your television is blaring at you? Gefen has a solution to this annoying problem. The GefenTV Auto Volume Stabilizer keeps the volume the same throughout TV programs and commercials. It will also level the volume on different CDs and audio mixes.

The GefenTV Auto Volume Stabilizer works with most A/V systems and uses Dolby Volume technology. Low frequencies are boosted and high frequencies adjusted to optimal levels that you set. Three inputs/outputs are provided for both analog (L/R) and digital (optical; coax) audio devices. All three inputs are switchable and live; you select which audio source will be adjusted. There is also a bypass feature allowing audio to pass through without adjustment.Read more
