Pro System Selector Silver 2 0
The Score System Selector Pro 2.0 is the ultimate control device for your audio, video and video game consoles. It supports the latest in video, audio and broadband technology with 5 rear inputs for AV/S video, component, digital optical and Ethernet as well as a hidden front input that features both AV and S-Video.
3 Stars Well rounded selector, good value, but a few flaws.
Pros: Simple to setup and use. Programming the labels is about has hard as setting the presets on your car radio. Blends right in with other stereo components. Passes 1080i HD signal to my CRT HDTV without any distortion that I can discern. Display is bright, clear and easy to read. Remote makes switched from game console back to TV or other devices from across the room simple.
Cons: No S-Video cable included. No dedicated audio cable included, so if you use all RCA style video outputs (component and composite) and send your sound via RCA to a receiver you either have to use your own cable or separate the red and white cables from the yellow on the included composite cable. As the other reviewers noted, there is no Wii label and no way to update/customize the labels.
The LAN support isn’t a true hub, but a switch, where port A or B can talk to the network but not both at the same time. You cannot link a LAN port to an input channel, so you have to select both the right A/V channel and LAN port.
5 Stars Awesome!
It’s just what a video gamer can ask for. No more switching back in forth with the A/Vs behind your tv. There all hooked up and ready to go.
4 Stars Very good Switch Box
I’ve read all the good and bad press on this one before I choose to purchase the product. I have found it works very well as long as you use good cables to reduce signal degradation. I have found that Plasma and LCD are more prone to artifacts, while my Mitsubishi projection TV has never had an artifact issue.
Unless you really need to have a remote and control more than three HD systems, consider looking at “Pelican HD System Selector” or the “GameStop Universal System Selector”, between 15 and 20 bucks. I have one of those too and have found it to be just as good a appliance.
5 Stars Keeping It Simple, Stupid
I did a fair amount of research and landed on this product in the hope that it would simplify things for me. In short, it does so and very well thank you. It’s a pretty straightforward install; the only (minor) critique is that it doesn’t have a dedicated “Wii” option but has a “GameCube” one – dates it, but if you’re not bothered, this product is a great bargain at about $50…
5 Stars Great, high quality system selector
I’ve been through 2 system selectors, one of them from some 3rd party and another low-end Pelican. However, I am pleased to say that this is a very good video switch.
I’ve got an Xbox 360, Wii, PS2, and my computer sound card output plugged into this. My 360 is 1080i and my Wii 480p. I have not experienced any issues like I did with the old switches, namely:
* Out of sync issues (where my projector loses the source) or HDTV goes crazy
* Inputs not properly displaying progressive scan
That hasn’t happened. I like the labeling system, but there’s no Wii, just Gamecube. Oh well. The remote works really well and it looks nice with my setup. I like the front panel, that’s really nice.
I was looking around for a good switch and a lot were really expensive but only had about 3-4 component inputs. This has 5 component inputs. The LED display tells you what it’s outputting and what channel you’re on. It was well worth it!
Pelican’s HD System Selector is the ultimate control device for all your gaming systems and your home video setup. It lets you switch easily between your DVD, Xbox, GameCube and Playstation, just by touching a button. The HD also supports the latest technologies, with inputs for AV, S-Video, Component and Ethernet connections.
4 Stars Gets the job done for not alot of mulah.
Ok, first of all the item is not as bad as some of these reviewers have written. I went out of my way to get a second one as I have NES, SNES, N64, Gamecube, Xbox, Xbox360, and a PS2 with a PS3 in the pipe. Both work flawlessly.
Here’s the skinny… it’s a switchbox… not a processor. It’s 20 bucks… not 120.
That said you will have about a 0.5% signal loss (about a dB in signal) going through the unit. Unless you have a really nice HD TV and know where every pixel on the screen is going to be and at what time… you’re not going to notice the loss. It does work in HD. The guy who says it doesn’t should try fiddling with his settings. If the console and TV aren’t configured correctly it will look very bad. All the box is is a physical switcher… wire for wire… and a solid one at that. I dropped mine on a concrete floor while moving and it took it smiling. The lack of completeness on the nameplates for the front is the only packaging complaint of mine. Most people that will use these are hardcore enthusiasts that will likely still have some of the older systems. At any rate… it’s worth the money. If you’re worried about signal loss then you can go ahead and buy one of the state of the art combiners and signal regenerators that will give you the best possible picture on a single mixed-down set of outputs. If you can afford the TV that would make a noticeable difference in this then you can afford to not bargain bin on your cables and switches anyways. (gold plated connectors are just an excuse to charge you more.. gold is actually a worse conductor than copper is.. worse than the alloys they use on this stuff nowdays, even… it just doesn’t corrode. If you take care of your stuff you won’t have that problem anyways.)
My only physical complaint about the unit is that it only has 3 component inputs and not 4 of them. The fourth input is composite/s-video, though, and better than most switches composite-only fourth port. I’ll be buying a third and fourth one of these to handle the mix-down of the few consoles I’m adding in the future as they do not make, currently, a 12 port component switch… which is what I need.
1 Star Poorly/cheaply made.
Mine was out of warranty and the composite video started to become flaky. Turns out the plug to the video was loose. I then found out that many of the plugs were loose. So I took mine apart and found that many of the solder points were disconnected from the mainboard of the device. Completely faulty soldering.
4 Stars Looking for a System Changer?
If you are looking for a system selector, you have found it. It is a basic system selector, and will work with basic TVs, but I fear it won’t work with high def TVs. If all that matters to you is that it is an easy way to change systems, and quality is not lost, then you have clicked on the right item. However, I cannot say whether or not it works with high def systems like the PS3. I guess you’d have to take a risk. But, what kind of person would play their PS3 on a regular TV? I know I would. Just buy this selector if you need one. OK?
4 Stars A Steal At 20 Bucks!
I’ve had this for a year and a half (I have my XBOX 360, PS2, Gamecube, and DVD player hooked up to it) and it works just fine! Don’t belive the review that it doesn’t work on HD (it’s also hooked up to my HDTV with NO compromise of picture quality at all!) It’s amazing that this works so well being the fact that the exterior of the unit is almost made entirely of plastic….the only reason why I didn’t give it 5 stars.
4 Stars Just what I needed.
The right price; does the right job. The slightest fault might be that the connections and bonus cables are not gold plated, but this wasn’t used on higher end equipment so there was no noticeable visual or audio degradation. I needed an inexpensive video selector that works with component connections and this was just what I needed. The bonus cables made it a great value too.
