ViewHD 4 Port HDMI 1x4 Powered Splitter

My rating probably is not valid since I believe the challenge I am experiencing with the splitter may be because of a set-up error I may have made and not the splitter itself; really wanted to be able to give it a higher rating! I am using the splitter to split the HDMI input signal from a Comcast Digital HD box to send HDTV to two 1080p TVs; one TV (a Sharp) is next is 3ft. from the splitter, and the other (a Vizio) about 40-50ft. away without having to lease a second box from Comcast. Before I set-up the splitter, I tested the connection to the more distant TV by directly connecting it to the HD box make sure the distance would not deteriorate the picture; the picture was perfect with 1080p resolution (without using a repeater), and it was with the primary TV as well. However, after setting up the splitter the resolution on both TVs dropped to 480p!! I disconnected the distant T.V. from the splitter to see if the primary TV's resolution still connected to the splitter would r... Read more

I was in the market for a 1x4 splitter for a 108i source to a Sony LCD, Onkyo SR-607 Samsung DLP/Optoma HD20 and to an Integra DHC 9.9 Samsung UNB7000/Sim2 D60. I started with a Monoprice's best 1.3b ATC 1x4 splitter and had compatibility issues with the IntegraSamsung/ Sim2 setup. Then I tried the HD Trinity splitter from CECmpass which worked intermittently and most of the time required the Onkyo->Samsung DLP to be turned on at the same time for it to lock/sync the signal. Finally, I tried this splitter and it works like a charm with my pickiest Integra DHC 9.9 setup right out of the box. I have been experimenting with HDMI setups for over a year now and I have paid heftily(over $200/-) for 1x2 splitters last year. 2009 is the year to take the leap to HDMI splitters as the price is right and I cannot recommend this splitter enough to everybody out there. This is the splitter to get for the best compatibilty with the pickiest of recievers or TVs. After a month of frustrations with var... Read more

This product is excellent. It is incredibly simple to use and works perfectly. I connected a second HD TV in my game room with a 50ft HDMI cable, also bought through Amazon at a price 75% less than at Best Buy. Amazingly, there is no drop off in picture quality. I would highly recommend this product.

The product description and all reviews are only applied to the 1x2 and 1x4 units from J&R; Galaxies. This HDMI 1x4 splitter is the latest and the best unit on the market for the following reasons: 1) It is the only splitter meets the HDMI V1.3 top Spec of 10.2Gbps, ready for next generation A/V application. with HDMI V1.3, you get Higher Resolution, Higher Frame Rate, Deeper Colors. Since there are so many HDMI V1.2 or older products were "mis-labeled" to V1.3, it is wise for buyers to be skeptical and dig further into product data. The only way to identify whether a HDMI product is true V1.3 or not, is to check whether it meets V1.3 speed requirements. HDMI V1.3 bandwidth is 10.2Gbps, which requires a video amplifier frequency of 340MHz to acheive it. HDMI V1.2 is 4.95Gbps or 165MHz. So, if you see a "V1.3" HDMI product having a video ampl...
