Customer Reviews: Average Rating:  Rating : - A good Splitter makes a difference
If you are one of the "unlucky" that lives in an apartment or dont feel like shelling out the money to have a "DEDICATED" cable line running to each room (from the outside box) then a splitter will be neccassary. Even if you have a dedicated line, you might want to use one for picture in picture. Problem is the more you split, the more signal you lose, and this can degreade picture quality and internet speed. I have five different splits needed, four for TV, and one for internet, and even though my picture was pretty clear, my internet connection was getting lost sometimes, so I decided to upgrade my splitters. The cable company supplied me with ONE 2 way 1GHZ "Regal Splitter" and ONE 3 way 1GHZ "Extreme" Splitter. I decided to upgrade these to the 2 and 3 way Monster Standard 1GHZ splitter. (please stay away from the higher end, 2GHZ Monster Splitters, unless you have Satilite. The Monster Standard 1GHZ is more then suffience for Digital Cable, Basic "Analog" Cable, Internet, and HD TV. When I changed the splitters, I found the picture to be more Crisp w better colors and Detailing, and the HD never looked better. My cable modem has yet to lose its connection and my downloads are faster. Mind you, if you are having lousy reception problems, and you have a cheap splitter, and you change to this, and it doesnt work, chances are its the outside line, so have that checked first, before you drop the money on splitters. The simple call to the cable company (some charge a small fee) could be all you need. But if you are like me, and already have a decent picture, but with minor picture flaws, or lose you internet connection, try upgrading to these, as always Monster delivers, and their "Standard" products are all you need, even if its cables, they are more then sufficent + See Full Customer Review |  |
