4 out of 5 stars A good switcher for the money   October 22, 2008
This is an active switcher -- it takes power. An HD switcher, it turns out, NEEDS power. Accept nothing less. I've tried both powered and unpowered switchers costing three times as much from Best Buy and Circuit City. I returned them. They're part of the Retail Accessory Ripoff Conspiracy Plot, and I will no longer participate. This unit is small, well built, and works perfectly.

I'm switching an AppleTV, Samsung Bluray player, and Hughes HD satellite PVR to an LG 32" desktop HD+DVI monitor. My Mac's HDMI port feeds the monitor directly, and this switcher feeds the component+audio ports. The remote is handy, but almost too small. The unit is a little on the light side, which is a problem when connected to an octopus of thick component video cables. The box ends up being suspended by the cables. I put a brick on, but sometimes a product just needs a little dead weight bolted to the bottom.



5 out of 5 stars Component Video Switch   October 13, 2008
Great product, works as described. Very useful for using one component input (on TV), while attaching 3 component video sources to it. Use with an audio receiver for (you guessed it) audio, specifically digital audio. Note: it is mainly meant for VIDEO, not audio.


5 out of 5 stars Product works great   September 25, 2008
I use this product to switch between multiple component sources - directtv receiver, ps3 and dvd jukebox player. Works very well.


5 out of 5 stars Fantastic, Compact Device. Probably the cheapest way to switch Toslink   September 24, 2008
I picked this device up because I needed a way to switch Toslink (optical audio) to my receiver, and I wanted something remote controllable. It's worked brilliantly for me.

A few high points for me:
- You can use it as a generic RCA switcher (so if you want, you could actually use it to switch multiple RCA audio devices per channel, or to switch composite... though that's probably a waste).
- Depending on your setup, you may get more than 3 devices out of it. I'm switching a cable box, an XBox 360, a Wii, and a PS3 on this. Since the PS3 doesn't need video, and the Wii doesn't need a TOSLink connection, they can both live on the same channel.
- Being able to remote control it is pretty much essential for me since I have so many devices and use a Harmony to control it. This device was already in the Harmony database, no manual programming required.

I've seen some reviews where people have complained of noise in the lines or voltage spikes switching audio. I have no personally experienced this, though. I'd recommend getting a replacement if you get it, as those are likely defective units.

I use it just for the Digital Audio. I have had no problems. It works very well.
