Expensive for what its worth. Did part of the job, couldn't get the output to come in color on those screens regardless of what cables or units I used. Wouldn't purchase again.

I've used this CeLabs distribution amplifier before and have been very pleased with the quality of signals on each display, all precise and in HD. I found this one on Amazon at a great price and delivery was earlier than expected. My only concern when searching for this unit was that it was labeled as an A/V Switcher where actually it doesn't switch but distribute. I'm very pleased with the device.

Its tempting to use the little passive RCA splitters and depending on cable length (and using mixed cable lengths for each TV) you might get away with this but I have a cable box in a basement rack and 4 component baluns sending HDTV throughout the house and there is no getting around the need for a product like this. This is powered and does not have any of the ghosting issues you probably have if you have used the little 2-1 splitters.Does exactly what it says, comes with everything you need - really power adapter only (except cables of course) and has been working issue free for me for 2 years now. I even bought a second unit to split a second box to different areas of the house.

Splitting a a component signal to see a jib camera at the base control and then sending off to a broadcast unit. Great tool we can depend on with our students creating video for our YouTube channel and School sport broadcasts.

I had this for just over one year and only one connection works now and the one that does work is distorted. This was a great idea but it just doesn't last. When it was working I had it going to three TV's and the picture and sound were great. About 6 months ago I noticed that once in a while the picture would drop out for about a second and I never gave it much thought, but now there's no picture on two of the three TV's and the one working is bad. I'm trying a different brand now to see if I have better luck.

I purchased this unit so I could run HD into other rooms in my house. after some time I started getting horizonal green and purple lines running up on my TV. I would unplug and replug the connectors on this unit and the lines would go away for abit then return. I blamed this unit and posted a ad on this sitewith my disapointment and started looking for a better unit. Turned out It was not this box and the problem was using cheap Cables. everytime Idisconected and reconnected them,they would start working. I since have removed my Ad from this site and resubmited this one.If you use this switcher,BUY GREAT CABLES.I ended up buying a HDMI switcher and switched out all my component cables to HDMI. no more signal loss and a great picture.if you can,Go HDMI and skip this route.

This item is totally useless it doesn't give any signal to even single monitor. Please stop selling a product that doesn't work , I end up buying a $99.00 worth of the same item but different brand and it worked to my 3 television all at the same time.

I had a 35 run and between my living room TV and the cable box. I rerouted that line to the amplifier and then ran a 15 foot line to that TV and a 12 foot line to the kitchen TV. I can see no difference in video or audio quality from before or after ( although the kitchen set now looks much better than with the coax feed). What more can I ask after one week of use? Time will tell.

This amp is even better than the s-video model I purchased 6 years ago. Has very little effect on the source signal, though you might want to ensure that you keep this warmish-running unit in a ventilated area (please. NEVER put a precision amp like this in a smothering corner. If necessary, get a small cooling fan. It will last years longer). In calibrating its output into both of my tv's I noted a slight depression in very, very dark (near zero IRE) blue. Easily solved, but if your tv has RGB controls you might want to shove dark blue upward a mere notch to avoid greenish blacks. Very even color transmission, no loss of contrast or resolution, very little noise if any. A far cry from the second-rate results I've seen with similar products at or near this price. I do have a $750 unit with slightly (I said slightly) better performance, but my tv and two DVD recorders shows this unit is first-rate. Test screens on associated equipment show that the amplified image and audio are not overloading my components. Apparently each output amplifies the input just enough to avoid signal loss (i.e, intelligently designed unity gain). What goes in is what comes out, not over-powered. You often see a lot of visible brightness pumping with this sort of amp, but not here. Another good design from CE Labs.
