component out from (onkyo) to 2 displays (not the same time) 1in to 2out AB SWITCH

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
Can it get more simpler, 1in 2out component AB switch. Should be quick search, 10 bucks, done. Not the case.

Every time I want to run the projector versus the aquos I have to pull the onkyo receiver out and swap the component cables. I read reviews of the monoprice and other splitters stating signal loss or degregation. I just need one or the other,not both at the same time. Should be just a simple hardware switch but I cant seem to find one. I do not need an amplifier, etc... Not really a big deal to do the labor every time but my son wants to do it now too.

I found a simple 1in 2out from siconinc dot com, or jaykang dot com but an unable to find any reviews and again, they are disribution amps I think and a simple hardware swith would be all that I need (and you would think the cheapeast and the best quality). Those distro amps are about twenty bucks. You can see the links on my amazon wishlist using my email daryl dot rue at cox dot net.

bottom line, please post links to a simple 1in 2out component hard switch if you know of any.

Thanks and appreciate it. Resulted in posting after a few hours of searching.

Did a search for passive component switches. I found http://www.studio1productions.com/switch-boxes.htm. It is made for three inputs to one output but, since it is passive, it is bi-directional and works fine in the reverse direction.

Also found http://www.firefold.com/RGB-Componen...P1539C127.aspx. I believe it's also passive because of the low price and could be used in the reverse direction, but it doesn't explicitly say. You'd have to contact them to verify that.

There are likely other such devices available also.
