No electronics. No power. No distortion. Just a 2-way switch and a potentiometer.Huh? Why would you want such a thing? Well, if you've ever wanted to use one of our DACs with powered monitors, Sys puts the volume control right at hand. Same goes for using two sources with one of our headphone amps—use Sys to switch between a DAC and a phono preamp, for example. And, you don't have to use Sys with our gear at all. It's a simple, high-quality, passive preamp that works with pretty much any line-level source.Designed and Assembled in USA By “designed and assembled in USA" this is what we mean: the vast majority of the total production cost of SYS—chassis, boards, assembly, etc—goes to US companies manufacturing in the US. Our chassis are made minutes from our facility. Our PCBs are done just over the hill from us, or done in NorCal. You get the picture.2-Year Warranty SYS is covered by a limited warranty that covers parts and labor for two years. That’s 2x the warranty of most of the products in this price range. ## Features - It's a 2-input passive preamp that adds no distortion, and gives you complete volume control. - Works with pretty much any line-level source. - It's just a 2-way switch and a volume knob.

I love mine, although I do wish the volume knob was a bit larger. **Q: I have the output in mill-volts range, and want it to upped to line level which can be fed to the amp. Can this act as phono amp?** A: Of course not **Q: will the switch degrade the sonic? I'm using 10AWG speaker wire, and etc. will this be the weakest section of my audiophile system?** A: I have huge gear hanging off of this (sunfire) and cannot tell any difference between channels when switching. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by S***N on January 26, 2016* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by ~***~ on November 15, 2014* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by G***N on March 31, 2015* ## Frequently Bought Together - Schiit SYS Passive Preamp Volume Control and 2-Input Switch (Black) - Monoprice 1.5ft Premium 2 RCA Plug/2 RCA Plug M/M 22AWG Cable - Black - CESS-163-4i Low Noise 12 Gauge Premium RCA Audio Line Patch Cable (4 Inches) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/470474108-schiit-sys-passive-preamp-volume-control-and-2-input-switch](https://www.desertcart.at/products/470474108-schiit-sys-passive-preamp-volume-control-and-2-input-switch) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-05-02*
