  • The idea of a switch box to switch between video signals has been around for many years on the PC. We’ve used D-sub switch boxes for years until the current DVI switch box we use today was installed. The HM-31 is an excellent switch box well worth the ...

  • You can hide the HM-31 behind your display or other equipment, you can mount it on the wall, or you can display it on a shelf with your other components. Some HDMI switchers I have tried have not always quickly produced a picture on the screen after sw...

  • Abstract:  The Oppo HM-31 not only has great performance, but it does so at an unheard price of only $99. The design is solid and leverages from the latest HDMI technology from Silicon Image. The support of both IR commands and the wired RS232 make the HM-31 a re...

  • Switches between as many as three HDMI devices; stylish design for a switcher; RS-232 port and IR-in for custom installers.
  • Fewer inputs than other switchers; expensive considering the per-input price; credit-card-style remote.
  • The Oppo HM-31 offers some nice upgrades for custom home installs, but competing models offer more inputs for less money. Price range: $99.00 - $99.99

  • Maximize your HDMI inputs on your HDTV with this 3 x 1 switch.
  • Requires a wall wart. Your universal remote may need to be reprogrammed.
  • So you set up your shiny new HDTV, only to find out that the two HDMI ports built into it just arent enough. Or maybe that affordable A/V receiver doesnt have enough HDMI inputs. More and more source devices support HDMI, including game consoles, DVD...
