We'd hook our main Direct TV box into this, and then chain several of these together, to run all the plasmas/LCDs/Big Screens off of these. Although, it's not what you need you still got a fairly good deal at $15- As cheap component DA's start at $40 and up. I'd hold onto this, as it may come in handy in the future. Especially if you want to run an HD video signal to other parts of the house. Of course, you can run composite or just audio signals through-out the house as there are many applications for this gizmo.

    Anyway if you're looking for a basic composite or s-video switcher, do a little digging at closeout/bargain stores (like big lots) as you can often find them (with 3 or 4 inputs) for $5-$10. I picked up my last RCA switcher for $7 bucks in a wal-mart clearance isle.

    Do not go to Best Buy or other big box electronic stores looking for a switcher, as you'll often pay a minimum of $20 for one.
    I probably will keep it (I bought 2 so I may sell one off) just in case I ever want to play the same game on multiple TVs just for fun. Although I didn't think about using it for audio signals though, the other one may come in handy if I ever get my stereo set up properly.

    I already have a couple of the basic cheap selector boxes, I was just hoping to upgrade to this one because it amplifies and all the connections are gold plated. And the one I'm using now might a short in one of the audio signals and is bleeding the color on text.
