MonoPrice HDMI switchers

Grimster74

Anyone here using a MonoPrice HDMI switcher, I want to say Ron-P is but I'm not sure. I can get a 5 in, 1 out switch for under $100 bucks shipped and I was wondering if anyone else had used one. I'm running both my HD-DVD and my Blu-Ray to my 990 using HDMI/HDMI cables w/DVI adapters but I'd also like to run HDMI from my Directv satellite to my projector and the only way to do this is to purchase a switcher. So, if anyone else has had any experience with these switchers I'd love to hear what your thoughts are on them.

I got one for my cousin, it was a 2x1 manual switch and worked perfect. Only cost around $30 and I saw no signal degradation switching between a PS3 and HD Receiver going to a 50in sony SXRD. Great product for a great price, a lot of focus over at AVS use them.

I broke down an ordered one this morning. Should be here sometime first part of next week.

I'm using the 2x1 manual switcher too. Works great. But people should know that by manual, all this switcher does is manually make the connections between the pins of one hdmi cable and another. So one shouldn't expect any problems with this type of connection because it's the same as if you just put an adapter at the end of the cable or a very small physical extension of the original connection.

That said, it delivers the goods and I've heard very positive things about the other switchers as well.

I am sir, a 2x1 for my HD-DVD and BD players. Thing is fantastic and I see no loss in PQ.
