Amazon.com Product Description
Simplify your Audio/Video experience with this SB-V40S A/V selector. This sleek and modern device will support four components. The key feature to the SB-V40S is its ability to accommodate both S-video and composite video connections. All four inputs have an S-video jack, plus a composite video phone jacks, with L/R audio phono jacks. There are also two types of output. The first is an S-video jack, plus a composite video phone jack with L/R audio phone jacks. The second output is an audio, with two, stereo mini-jacks. Because the SB-V40S works on a passive system, there are no power requirements; you can therefore use this device wherever it is most convenient, without considering an available power source. There are also no cable re-connection requirements. Simply plug in your components properly and the system is ready to function. To make switching components an easy process, Sony has put four input selector buttons on the selector. The selector is sleek and compact and can fit on top of your components or on a small shelf. If you are looking for a clean way to consolidate a few of your A/V components, this selector is a proper choice. p bWhat's in the Box/bbr Sony SB-V40S selector

4 out of 5 stars Worked like a charm   October 30, 2008
P. Costa (Boston, MA, USA)
Sony's switch worked just as described. I'm using it with component video cables, so I can't speak to the S-video connection, but it works fine with my cable, DVD, and Wii. The picture and sound are clear, the input and output jacks are clearly marked so it was easy to set up, and the fact that it doesn't need to be plugged in makes it all the more convenient.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent Product!   September 6, 2008

It does what it's supposed to do. Get this one if you need it.


5 out of 5 stars S-Video Mechanical Switch   August 31, 2008
Dennis B. Dahlman (Florida)
The product met my fundamental requirement of being able to switch mechanically (electronically would have been better) multiple S-Video/Sound sources. I did NOT measure signal loss, but, there is certainly no perceptible degradation of video/sound quality.


5 out of 5 stars I've had one for year and it still works great   March 3, 2008
Frequent Amazon Shopper (Los Alamos, NM USA)
This switch is easy to use, and very durable. I've had one attached to a TV that is used heavily by a bunch of kids for years, and it still works! I'm buying a second one for another TV. Highly recommended, no need to spend more.


5 out of 5 stars Works as expected   February 8, 2008
Harpoon (Mukilteo, WA USA)
The video switch showed up quickly and was easy to install. I now have a VCR, DVD, N64 and WII all connected through one video input on the TV. Switching back and forth between components is quick and easy. Good Product.
