How do you all control your volume in your cabs?

I got (and love) an inexpensive ($20) 3pc LOGITECH set that has the external switch.
I simply put some double sided tape on it and mounted it on the inside of my coin door on my Nintendo machine.
Like others said I could have placed it under the control panel just as easily. It is a great, easy solution.

Why am I guessing you got that at XS Cargo? If so, I think I know the one, and it's got great sound.

I'd guess he got the Logitech S220. That's what I used and for the cheap price, you can't go wrong

The point is to keep everything within the pedestal. Grabbing the remote off the couch to change the volume just hurts the overall experience. Realistically my only issue is that windows 8 doesnt support cabvol or other such apps yet. With windows 7, i simply set 2 buttons for volume up or down on my pc.. And i could change volume at any given time by simple holding my shift key and up or down on the joystick. It was super easy, super clean and can be used at any time.. You could realistically change the volume in the middle of a game without misssing much of a step. Windows 8 is whats kind of screwing me here :( Its becoming a big issue as i now have to find a way to change the computer volume from the control panel, with no built in speakers to hardwire a switch to. The hotkey issue is killing me right now

holy goodness.. i just tried installing cabvol again on my windows 8.. and it works!!!

If i can get these settings right, ill be the happiest person on this board tonight.

I guess for future reference.. cabvol works on windows 8 lol
