Panlong 8-Way AV Switch RCA Switcher 8 in 1 Out Composite Video L/R Audio Selector Box for DVD STB Game Consoles

Bought for my son to hook up several classic console game machines to an old CTV. So far all the ones we hooked up on it have worked perfectly fine. The picture quality seems good, and the metal housing unit seems really durable. Great value for the money since it allows us to connect several game machines to one tv. It is also compatible to everything we have used.

I purchased this switcher to connect multiple "retro" game systems to an LCD tv. So far, I am quite happy with the picture and sound quality coming out of this product! I have a Retro-Bit RetroTRIO, Nintendo 64, Playstation, Playstation 2, XBox, and a Wii consoles connected to it. I hope to connect an old Atari 2600 to it soon, as well. Originally, I had an old 4-input Pelican RCA switcher with the game systems connected to it. I upgraded to this Panlong switcher because I needed more inputs. I can notice a definite difference in the video quality with the Panlong. It has much crisper visuals coming out of it, compared to the old Pelican switcher (which I bought back in the late 90s!). When I was running my N64 and NES through the Pelican box, the video looked a lot more pixelated on my LCD tv, than they do with this Panlong box. There is also a lot less "ghosting" of fast movements on the N64 with this switcher. However, I have to say that any LCD/LED TV will pixelate and ghost the older game systems no matter what. Those systems were made for old tube TVs, and the way they display pictures. The new HD TVs will only make flaws in the resolution of the old games stand out. Eventually, I may purchase an up-converter for the RCA output of this box, and connect it via HDMI to the TV. I hear that helps a little on resolution. But, I am currently quite happy with the video quality that this Panlong box gives out. I would definitely recommend this switcher to anyone! *Quick disclaimer: I connected all these old game systems to a smaller 26" LCD TV. I did not try it with my 52" TV. I assume, as with any of the older systems, the video quality will decrease a small portion due to the larger size of the HD screen being used. But, I don't think it would be a deal-breaker. When I used the old Pelican box on my 52", the quality was a lot less than if I connected the NES to the TV directly. Seeing the improved quality of this Panlong box, I don't think that would be an issue here.

Working great with 5 retro consoles connected. I verified all input ports work and I tested with all 5 consoles powered on and there was no cross-talk. When it arrived though, the buttons were all pushed in and for a moment I thought it was defective like some other reviewers' units, but I pushed really hard on one button at random and then all the others popped out.

Very useful switch.

It's a simple box that does exactly what it was made to do. I wish it had ears to fit in a rack and a remote, but it gets the job done.

Great for connecting multiple retro game consoles, easy to use and for a great price. Can't say enough for how useful this has been. Came in good quality and works great.

Can easily be labeled and used without issue. Mechanical switch needs no power and transmits video perfectly as intended.

I purchased 2, one for each stereo set up. Well made, switches are crisp and work well. I am surprised that the sound is even better than just using so many cables like before. Cleans up the back of the stereo, too. I wanted to mount this and not just leave it sitting on my cabinet. I removed the top, and there is lots of room in there! I drilled and used 1/4" screws and nuts to hang from a shelf inside my cabinet. It is solid, easy to see and use, and safely inside the glass doors. Worth the extra work.

If any of the inputs are not working property, it may be due to loose ribbon cable connections inside of the device. Instead of sending it back and waiting for a new one, or buying something else, fix it yourself.

I have 6 concoles plugged into this box and I have never had any issues with the buttons or anything. Feels like it's built pretty solid and mine gets used daily for over 2 years.

Have had this for a year or so, and never had any issues. There's a loud-ish click when you switch inputs, but that's hardly a dealbreaker.
