KMA Machines Active Stereo ABY

consistent active connectivity, in stereoThere’s nothing new about ABY boxes. They’re a very commonly used accessory and a staple part of many setups out there. But if they are so common, then (until KMA launched their passive Stereo ABY) why was it so difficult to find one in a stereo format that’s well built, noise-free AND affordable? This is a question KMA kept encountering as they use many stereo devices daily, plus we know that a lot of users are just as mesmerised by the wide sonic worlds of stereo as we are. So, KMA made a killer stereo ABY switcher to use here at their workshop. In the process it became so useful, so they decided to make the original STEREO ABY available to the world too in a pedal format.

However, despite the passive boxes gracing thousands of rigs the world over, the Active STEREO ABY takes things a little further and is ideal for those who like to use the Y splitting or combining functions – at least with some signals that don’t always play nicely together, due to often differing impedances between connected devices. With KMA’s high quality active buffer, the pedal can also help eliminate level mismatches or even signal loss, if used with long cable runs.

Whether you’re looking to switch or combine a Stereo input signal between two separate destinations or switch or combine two separate Stereo input signals into a single stereo output without signal loss, the KMA Machines STEREO ABY pedal is a dependable little helper for your tonal quest – the fate of your Stereo signals is in your hands!
