(More customer reviews)I had been using a manual selector for the past 5 years and because there were no optical inputs, I had to use separate optical switcher for sound and it was getting a pain having to remember to switch the optical selector and manual selector to the right setting to get my various components to work. I had to get a new selector with optical inputs anyway so I decided to get an electric one. I originally went into the store to get the selector that looked like an XBOX 360, also from JoyTech but this one is a much better deal as it has 7 inputs vs. 6 on the "XBOX 360" one. Granted the "XBOX 360" one looks better, but functionality wise this is the better buy.
Set up is simple and straightforward. Once you have everything setup you can program to what each device is into the Control Center. I have "X360", "XBOX", "CUBE", "DVD", and "TVOPT" programmed into mine. Every time you switch inputs, the LCD screen turns blue for a second to let you know which one is currently selected, and the remote allows you to do it from the couch.
Best of all, I have the remote commands programmed into my Harmony 670 remote and now just a press of one button does everything, including setting the right input on the Control Center. It can't get much simpler now.
In addition to all of this, the unit comes with supplied A/V cables, RCA Cables, Ethernet wire (if you plan on running Ethernet through the unit), Component cables, and a cable coax cable. I already had all the cables I needed, but the included cables are a huge plus, making this unit well worth the $100. Definitely recommended.
