Digital camera Review: Disappointed
Summary: 1 Stars
I was very disappointed with this product. One of the ports stopped working shortly after I hooked it up, and then I ended up with intermittent audio signals from the other ports. My blue ray player had intermittent audio, and when I ran the optical cable directly to the device and not through the switch, not problem. Ditto with my Dish receiver. Great idea that just didn't work for me.Digital camera Review: Discontinued Item. Spend $10-$15 more for something that actually works.
Summary: 1 Stars
This thing was a piece of junk. Manual dial switching is a terrible idea. The optical cables need to be EXACTLY aligned. The switch didn't work for any inputs, even though I saw the red light shining through, it would not pass any actual audio from any of the three inputs. I tested each cable individually and I know it was the switch that was preventing anything from working. I called tech support and they said since they don't make this anymore, they suggested just returning it.
I got this instead and I literally jumped up and down when I found it worked. Cables To Go 28731 3-Play S-Video, Composite Video and TOSLINK Digital Audio High Performance Selector Switch (Black) It works wonderfully with my handy Harmony Remote too, so no getting up and switching.
Digital camera Review: Disposable Switch
Summary: 1 Stars
I have owned the switch for only 6 months and it has already broken. It started out great and as weeks went on you could start to hear the drop in sound quality. I didn't think much of it because after a couple of minutes it would work fine, until one day I just couldn't hear anything. After a couple minutes of trouble shooting I found out that it was the switch that was the problem and not the cables, or the receiver. If you are looking for a quick, cheap, and short time solution then this product is for you.Digital camera Review: Does Not Work at All
Summary: 1 Stars
I was hoping this would make switching optical inputs easier, but this product hasn't worked for me at all. Like most others, my home theater reciever only has 1 input, and I have to swap cables around to use my DVR reciever and my PS3. Neither the cable box nor the PS3 worked with this product.
I would not recommend buying this product!
Digital camera Review: Does exactly what it said it would do.
Summary: 5 Stars
Simply put, this switcher does exactly what it is supposed to do. For the price I couldn't have asked for anything better. This is for the not so elite of us out there who cannot (or choose not to) afford the uber premium/expensive HD receivers. If you don't mind manual switching this product is for you.
