Looking for a good component selector that won't degrade quality.
I tried to look at a few, but most seem to be discontinued.

I'm not super picky, but I don't want to lose that sharpness. 6 in is perfect for me too

Re: AV Selector Recommendations

Re: AV Selector Recommendations
Box is not critical compared to RF boxes
RF needs good shielding, RCA does too but not quite as critical. I use Pelican boxes which also makes Gamestop versions. Just mechanical switches that complete each two wire circuit of individual RCA and four pin SVideo connections.

Re: AV Selector Recommendations
I also use Pelican A/V system selectors which have worked out great having all the cable types I need supported: RF, S-video, component, composite, and ethernet. It's only missing HDMI but I don't have many HDMI devices anyway.

Re: AV Selector Recommendations
Since I'm cheap, I just went for that 6in. I'll let ya guys know how it looks compared to direct input.
Re: AV Selector Recommendations
Ya, I was looking at the Pelican, but was having trouble finding it. That monoprice one looks great. I will give it a try.
Re: AV Selector Recommendations
I personally use Startech boxes, but the composite/s-video ones seem to be discontinued. Simple, get the job done, and are remote controlled.
