Don't let HDMI force you to upgrade your receiver/amplifier!

HDMI is clever, but the problem is that it knows that it's clever, and a little ego can go a long way, causing all sorts of problems when you want to hook up great old speakers or amps with new-fangled Blu-ray players and digital video recorders. What you really need, then, it some kind of a magical switch that can swap between up to four HDMI inputs and split a duplicate audio signal to output to both HDMI (for the television) and a 3.5mm Stereo audio jack, Toslink and/or Coax (for your amplifier, speakers or headphones). Since we're making a wish, let's throw in remote operation with a mini IR controller, ok?

What this would mean is high-quality digital throughput at HDMI 1.3 standards for all your high-speed, high-definition viewing pleasures, and equally fautless digital audio across all three standards simultaneously: Stereo, TOSLINK Optical and Digital Coaxial.

Good thing I have just such a product right here, then, isn't it? =) That's right, it's the Premium 4 Port HDMI Switch with Audio Splitter, and it does absolutely everything as mentioned above. 1080p Full HD? Check. Digital Audio output? Check. Remote controlled? Check! Compact and clever? Double check!! Read on for the full technical specifications, but be prepared to be amazed.
