THE CIMPLE COVideo Switcher, 2-Way A/V Switch, RCA, Retro Game Consoles, 2 Input/1 Output Selector, Composite Audio and Video, Box, Includes Cable, Black

I like it when things just work. This works. No bells or whistles, just A&B

I bought the two port version of this. Of course I have no need for the composite video functionality (not in this century, anyway), and am using just the audio. I was a bit nervous about the audio only switchers that have volume knobs. I don't want the signal going through any more circuitry than necessary!I confirmed it works in 2-in, 1-out mode (which is how the jacks are labelled), but I am using it in 1-in, 2-out mode. (Note again that I am only using audio, I have no idea if 2-in, 1-out would work for composite video!)

Now-a-days, my audiophile endeavors (as compared to the past) have been confined to a desktop PC environment. Thus, I have to look for small components and speakers to fit where they may in this arrangement.I was using two DAC units (digital to analog converters) and had to switch back and forth by unplugging and plugging in the RCA inputs going to my powered speakers. Of course, this eventually became a hassle as I stopped, stood up and reached to the shelf that the DAC's were on.I had been eying various RCA switchers in the past - some very expensive, others inexpensive. My main concern was not experiencing signal loss or degradation. So I took a chance on purchasing this 2 port video/audio switcher (I am only using the audio inputs - not the video inputs). When it arrived, the construction quality is on par with what you'd expect in this price range. And to be honest, I wasn't expecting much - but I was totally (positively) surprised at this little baby.After connecting both DAC's and switching back and forth between the two, I could discern no difference or degradation in sound qualities (and I consider myself a critical listener). Additionally, I love the push buttons in the front of the unit that allows you to switch between units. This was very convenient, while the RCA cables from the DAC's were connected in the rear.It should also be noted that although this switcher has a compact signature (size), it's large enough to prevent cables (no matter how heavy) from moving the unit around. And for those of you who have tried the various very small mini switchers on the market, getting them to stay in one place after cables have been attached, can be tricky.So for what this is - meaning the ridiculous cheap price you pay for this device, and for what it does - I'm giving it 5 stars.

Does exactly what it says it does in clunky and chunky analog fashion. Mine was missing a couple of the steel collars around the jacks so it's being replaced--thankfully Amazon does well there!On the inputs that worked, it is great. I was only using it for audio but tested the video and found it worked well like RCA should.Solid product, probably just a bad one left the factory in my case--I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again.Finally, this is a bi-directional RCA hookup. One input to four outputs is just as possible. A nice bonus if you want to, for example, swap between a Hi-Fi stereo setup and a pair of RF "watch TV quietly" headphones.

Worked like a charm. Used it to connect my turntable and cd player to my Roku port.

This is one of the best audio/video "gadgets" I've ever purchased! Makes switching my AV-based sound system from Bluetooth to CD-Player a BREEZE! One of the best things you could ever put in a setup!

So far so good. Hooked up my N64 and Sega Genesis to it and it's able to switch immediately between them! The buttons are also satisfying to press.

I confirmed with my multimeter that if you push BOTH buttons, they BOTH will stay in and connect BOTH inputs to the output. Be careful. If you want this as a feature, it could be useful, but if you didn't want it (most don't) you could damage one or both of the input devices. I was going to use this for two turntables. I might send it back, though it seems to be well-made. I just need to be careful.
