Does the volume control go all the way to completely off? More specifically, do you get the satisfying off-position 'click'?

The volume can be shut completely off but there is no click in the off position.

it turns all the way down but there is no 'click'. That would indicate there is another switch involved. More parts mean more problems.

Volume and mute controls work fine. The answer button does not and is noted on their product page. I'd hoped it might, but it wasn't a deal breaker. I find I use the mute button and volume controls most often anyway.

The click is not super loud... but it's definitely not inaudible either. Honestly, I've never thought twice about it till now.

It absolutely turns off. It requires a little extra click as you push it off. I use it all the time.

The button doesn't skip tracks or adjust volume. It does however pause the music, and unpause. Hope this helps.

Yes, you just press the top button briefly to turn off the monitor, press again to turn on, the sound still works. The volume is adjustable and has a good range. The monitor is also very good and clear with capturing the sounds.

Yes. Just turn it down. There's no click or switch it just turns off when the volume is at the low setting.

Sorry, but I am coming up with the same thing as you. The only thing I can figure is that you may just tap it for mute and hold down for off. I have not had a chance to try this yet so I am just guessing. Hope this is of some help.

Yes just ran a test. It does not turn the volume totally off. I run my headphones off a Zxr SoundBlaster card which has an internal headphone amp and exterior volume control. The volume control that comes with the card is top notch. Hope this helps.

On the side of the horn there is a +(on) and -(off). That would be the only way of adjusting, but from personal experience it didn't make it any quieter by putting it in the middle. Its basically on or off, and how hard you hit the button is the only possible way.

As the other response indicated, the sound is mechanical, not electronic, so it can't be turned off...but it is not particularly loud--it more sounds like the closing of the electrical contact than a deliberate click. I actually haven't used the keyboard all that much so far, but it seems pretty decent for the price.best wishes, Tom

No, in fact, if you turn it off, it does not even remember which function it was on or the last-played volume level. You have to cycle through the functions to get back to the one you were last using...oh, and you'll probably have to turn it down right away. These are certainly downsides, but the upsides outweigh them. For the price, it has pretty good sound, and the ability to use an SD card or USB to play music is fantastic. We have even gotten some use out of the Bluetooth function. You will be hard-pressed to find as versatile of boombox for the $. Hope this helps.

YES! I do it all the time :) just turn off the oscillating feature with a simple click of the middle button

Sorry, I've bought two of these units & have not experienced anything that you describe. I'm able to turn up the volume without having it shut off. I've not listened to my units at max volume, however, I'm very happy with the units & the price. You may want to go into the speaker manufacturers website & try & contact them.

Yes. If you press until you hear a click then it won't come off without you deliberately taking it off.

Yes, there is a noticeable clicking sound when you press either of the buttons. But not knowing what you have right now, I can't say whether it is more or less distracting.
