(More customer reviews)I'm going to type one review for three products. I hope that is allowed.
A friend of mine owns the "hippest ultra-chic dive bar" in Mesa, AZ. The A/V system has had many problems for several years. The biggest customer complaint was the snowy picture and lack of clarity across the 8 televisions. Being a dive bar, these were not LCD's or Plasma TV's, all were CRT's. I had a budget of $200. The original setup was for Direct TV, DVD player, VCR and ROKU, an internet TV provider. These were all connected via 2-way coax splitters and two way switches. I removed about two dozen of the switches and splitters along with a couple hundred feet of coax when I started.
The first part of my setup used the Cables To Go 287504x2 S-Video + Composite Video + Stereo Audio Selector Switch (Black) (purchased here). This product has 4 inputs with 2 outputs. Though the item doesn't mention it in the description, this switch is capable of converting S-Video to Composite and vice versa. This was handy because some of the source devices only had composite video out and I wanted to use S-Video coming out of the switch. I sent one of the 2 outputs to the A/V receiver, mainly for sound purposes but also to supply a monitor and digital projector.
The other output went to the Belkin RF Modulator ( F8V3063 ) that I purchased here. Since some of the TV's only had coax input and the rest were already wired with coax, converting the A/V signals to coax was the most cost effective distribution method. I would have loved to use RCA audio and S-Video to all available TV's but the cables and additional distribution splitter/amplifier would have exceeded my budget. This RF modulator did the job quite nicely.
From the modulator, the coax goes to the CHANNEL VISION C-0332 1 In / 16 Out Amplified Rf Splitter (also purchased here) and is then sent to the 8 televisions. I also added two additional TV's that are even further away from the splitter than the rest. I installed an "F Type 75 Ohm Terminator, Pkg/10" (purchased elsewhere) on every output that wasn't hooked up to a TV.
With the use of the above products, I was able to achieve crystal clear picture on all of the TV's, even the ones at the end of long runs of coax. I highly recommend any and all of the above items as all have performed flawlessly so far, about a month as of this writing.
