Get more hookup flexibility for your digital components with this versatile, high quality Digital Optical Selector Switch. This 3-Way Digital Optical Selector Switch lets you connect up to three different optical digital components to a component with only one optical digital input. The selector allows you to switch from one component to another just by turning the selector dial no more disconnecting and connecting cables or moving equipment around. You can play any of the three components you connect and enjoy the output through your home theater system.
There are four optical digital jacks. The output jack connects to the main unit to which you would like to expand the number of optical jacks (normally a digital audio/video receiver/amplifier). The three input jacks connect to the source devices and allow you to output digital audio to your main unit. Switch easily between sources instead of disconnecting and reconnecting cables when needing to change inputs. The compact design will fit in tight areas between components.
Works with the following digital audio components: home/portable digital audio components with optical connection, MP3/CD/DVD player including Blu-ray/HD DVD, video game consoles (PS3/XBOX360), computer sound card, cable/satellite receiver to your home theater system with a digital optical input.
Operation: To hear your connected sources through your home theater system, turn on your home theater system and the audio source you want to hear. Then, press in the lock release button on the selectors dial and rotate the dial to the indicator corresponding with the source you want (1,2, or 3). A green indicator shows which of the three units is selected (only one can be selected at a time). Release the button to lock the selector in place. The sound from the selected source comes through your home entertainment systems speakers.
Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Works, but barely Comment: Works, and all 6 channels are active with no loss of quality. But you have to constantly wiggle the cables in the splitter to get them to work. Once you hit a sweet spot it works fine. But when you switch optical cables, the sound drops out, and you're back to wiggling the cable to get the sound back. If you're tired of plugging and unplugging cables like I was, I suppose wiggling cables is a step up, but I can't recommend this product full-heartedly. Creating a splitter is a relatively simple concept and I'm surprised so many of these "audio splitters" are just so poorly made. Customer Rating: Summary: Cheap Product Comment: This product is not reliable. It definitely has problems with the 360, and moving from one selector to the other, feels as if the knob will break apart after 50 turns. Customer Rating: Summary: Work for PS3 and TV outputs Comment: I don't know what kind of folks keep saying that this thing doesn't work but they're full of it. It works fine on my PS3 and my Samsung TV's outputs. I bought mine from along with 2 of these cheap cables from the same seller and it all works PERFECT.
I spent a total of $21 shipped including the cables from the seller Gadget Dweeb and it was the best price out there since everyone else charges an arm and a leg for shipping. http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/seller/at-a-glance.html?ie=UTF8&isAmazonFulfilled=0&orderID=105-3197471-1537046&marketplaceSeller=1&seller=A1MFU1H74X0UEH Customer Rating: Summary: Great Value and Very Convenient! Comment: Great Value and Very Convenient!
This is a great product. The item arrived super fast and was super easy to hook up. And i have had some bad experiences with sort of product before. But it works great to hook up my DVD, XBOX 360, and PS2 to my reciever so i can watch movies and play games all in 5.1 surround.
The only thing i don't like about the product is its' design. It can take up a lot of space, and it just looks weird sitting on top of my receiver. I will it was more like a front panel box and everything plugged into the back. But changing the design would include adding a pc-chip, and then your price skyrockets!
For what this is, what it does, and how it functions, i would give it an A-. Customer Rating: Summary: Great item !!!!!I bought 2!!!! Comment: I bought this because my Pioneer receiver only had one output!!!Works super!!!Can't find it anywhere else.Glad I bought 2.NO worries!!!
