This application relates to switch arrangements, in particular switch arrangements suitable for switchable connecting nodes of audio driving circuitry (100) that may, in use, experience a signal swing depending on an output audio driving signal (VD). A switch arrangement (300) comprises first and second transistors (301 and 302) of the same polarity type connected in series between the first and second nodes, with a third transistor (303) connected between a defined voltage (VS) and an intermediate node (N3) between the first and second transistors. The first transistor (301) has a drain connection to the first node (N1) and a source connection to the intermediate node (N3). The second transistor (302) has a drain connection to the second node (N2) and a source connection to the intermediate node (N3). The third transistor (303) has a source connection to the defined voltage (VS) and a drain connection to the intermediate node (N3) and regulates the voltage at the intermediate node when the switch arrangement is in an off state.
