So my headphone amps outnumber my sources so looking for a RCA switcher. One in and 3-4 out. Was eyeing the Luxman AS-44 Line Switch simply because it's pretty, can be found on eBay, and the matching P-1 would be involved, but can't find any photos of inside and open to other options as, after all, it's just a passive switcher. There's Goldpoint too. And yeah, I know the d-_-b solution would be to buy more DACs. Any thoughts?

The Hoff forum had a discussion on the same topic.

Switching?, you'll want a remote, right?

RCA Switch Box 4 in 3 Out: 4 Way AV Splitter 3 Output with Remote Control for Audio Video Distribution, RCA Splitter Switcher Composite Video L/R Audio Selector Box for DVD STB Game Consoles https://a.co/d/ddbyc0a

$15.99 . Not reassuringly expensive enough? 🫰 

Rca source selectors are a bit niche, AV composite selectors have RCA audio as a side effect, and may be more readily available in pro / rack mount versions (avoids cable drag)

Doesn't "Shinybow" scream audiophile cred?

For my sins, I may have had a radio shack AV selector (black, with silver keys that "clicked") that did just that. It may Even be in some meet photographs from the other site. I have no idea where it is right now. 

Have fun on your journey!

Thanks for the suggestions Grahame. Extrons are responsible for too many headaches at work to be allowed in my home. The Solupeaks/Soulpeaks seem good cheap options. Using even cheaper Y-splitters until I decide how vain to be.
