I just purchased a Sony Wega 42" projection TV and I have a question about the component connections. This TV comes with two component sets for video and about 4 RCA connections for audio. Unfortunately, I need at least 3 (cable, DVD, XBox) If I was to purchase this splitter for the video:

Do I just plug all the RCA audio in to the available plugs on the TV?

You could also connect either the DVD player or the Cable Box (if you have HD-cable service) to the tv's HDMI or DVI port. This requires that you have a special upconversion DVD player and an HD cable receiver.

Yes, I would just use a splitter for Video, but you should be able to plug all audio in the rear of the T.V..

p.s. Been in the Home Theater hobby for 10 years and I love the fact that I don't HAVE to go to the Cinema.

Do you think he would lose quality with the splitter?

It all depends upon the bandwith...most receivers have incorporated bandwiths that enable it to not lose signal, especially when using High Def. components...i.e HDTV, Progressive DVD Players. If you are going to use a splitter make sure it's of high quality, something that can carry the full, wide bandwith of that signal.

p.s. It also matters on what size of screen you are going display the signal. Smaller sets are not an issue but big screens are. It's easy to see signal degragation.
