I've gone through two similar distribution amplifiers from [...]. The first stopped working outright, and the second developed a problem in the right audio channel. This is my second CE LABS AV 400 and the quality shows. It is solidly constructed and provides output virtually matching the input. My first one has been in use for two years and is still going strong. [...]. Overall I am very happy with this product.

Lets you send one A/V signal to up to 4 places, each place getting a near-perfect replica of the original. In our setup, it cleaned up interference, too. An excellent product!

By Gary A from Undisclosed on 10/5/2006

There are many inputs in auidio/video equipment but not many outputs. With the Av-400 you get 4 extra outputs and the AV-400 has no Video or Audio loss. I would recomend it to everyone. [...]

By Tyrell B from Undisclosed on 3/31/2006

The AV400 works exactly like I thought it would. It does NOT amplify the signal more than the imput: It is a true 1:1 signal. The video mixer I am using (Edirol V4) did NOT like the AV400 run BEFORE the mixer. (I was trying to split a video signal before mixing it). It added noise to the signal.

When used POST video mixer it worked like a charm. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to split a video signal AFTER a mixer. I did not use the sound splitter function of the splitter. Hope this helps!

By Justin S from Undisclosed on 9/17/2004

I originally bought this item because I am trying to narrow down the cause of some static lines on my TV screen. I had bought a rather shoddy switcher for 20 bux a year or so ago and once you had switched the connections around even once, it broke the connections on the inside and made the thing almost useless. (Unless you like having to hold your cables at certain angles to keep the picture on the screen...)

Lines on the screen haven't totally gone away but they are better, so I'm on to the next component.
