I love it when something works like it's supposed to and this little selector box does just that! I recently installed a Bravia surround sound system that has only one TOSlink (optical cable) port, but I had two pieces of equipment that needed to be plugged into it (a PS3 and HD cable box). I originally looked at the manual TOSlink selectors, but there have been many problems reported with them in both short term and long term performance. The reviews for this selector box were impressive, so I bought it based on that. I've got the cable box and PS3 hooked into it and it outputs to my Bravia surround. Sound quality is unaffected by the addition of the selector box, the sound is just as good as when I had the PS3 cabled directly to the surround. The box even looks nice! The credit card-style remote control switches the selector instantly and has very good range. As has been mentioned in other reviews the selector box can also be easily controlled manually by pushing the buttons on the front of it. Overall I'm very happy with this and feel it is an excellent value for an electronic selector that can be remote controlled.
One thing worth noting, per the instructions the box does not convert signals from analog to digital. In other words, you can't run component cables to the input and expect to output sound across an optical cable. The inputs and output have to match. My setup is all optical, so this wasn't an issue; I just mention this in case someone is looking at this device for that application.

Why connect and reconnect cables to manually switch between devices. Get rid of the cable hassle, and add flexibility to your home theater system with the 3-Play selector. Plug in this switch and quickly add three toslink, three s-video, and three RCA composite audio/video ports to your system. Great for connecting three of the following: DVD players, satellite receivers, video game consoles or digital video recorders - any devices that have dual channel analog or toslink audio with s-video or composite video. This is an ideal solution for the a/v enthusiast who wants to take full control of an ever-expanding system. Use the wireless remote control or the three front panel input selector buttons to quickly change sources.Input: Three S-Video Female, Three TOSLINK Female, Three RCA Audio/Video Female. Output: One S-Video Female, One TOSLINK Female, One RCA Audio/Video Female. Please Note: This unit does not convert s-video to composite video, or composite video to s-video; the output signal is always the same as the original input signal. For your convenience, the following replacement parts are available for this item: Item #98009 - AC/DC Adapter, and Item #98014 - IR Wireless Remote Control.
