I need a switching device with 4x HDMI + audio (RCA) + optical + coaxial, with IR remote

Hello,

I would like to buy this product ( Audio Authority 1154B )... does it deserves 329USD?

Key Features

• Discrete selectable inputs
• Connectors grouped by input number for easy hookup
• Supports component video (YPbPr) up to 1080p
• Digital audio (coaxial and optical)
• Automatic digital audio cross-conversion
• Stereo analog audio
• AutoSelect technology with manual selection override
• AutoSelect senses changes in digital and analog audio signals
• Made in the USA

Inputs/Outputs

• Component video (YPbPr) - 4/1
• Digital audio (coaxial and optical) - 4/1
• Analog stereo audio (L/R) - 4/1

Please note that I need something with IR remote, which to work with audio sources. I have below devices which I need to have them controlled/switched with this device:

-a Samsung XL2270HD which has optical audio output

-a MacBook Pro 13 inch laptop, which uses also optical output or normal 3.5mm converted into RCA

-Revo Blik RadioStation which has RCA output, will be replaced by a Logitech Squeezebox Touch soon using optical output.

-an optional AUX output with 3.5mm stereo jack, which will be an iPhone or other musical device

All those outputs will be switched by a audio switch ( Audio Authority 1154B, a possible acquisition) and will enter in a DAC with selectable audio inputs (possible a future Yulong D100 DAC)... going out into my Harman Kardon Soundsticks III speakers (2.1 system) or a dedicated audio amplifier.

Unfortunately this audio switch has only component video (I would need HDMI, preferable)... does exist something in this budget, comparable with this device which I've found? I put accent on design and mandatory to have IR remote, so I can control it via my Logitech Harmony One. See that this AA 1154B product has this option and it's included in Harmony's database (see Download page from here).

Any suggestions for me? Does anyone from this forum uses such Component Autoselect Switcher with IR Remote? Any review for it? Impressions?

Regards,

Andrei

Nobody can give me a suggestion?

Not really, I need to have inputs: coaxial, optical and RCA... HDMI is optional. At this moment, with IR remote (mandatory) I think Audio Authority 1154B is the best... does exactly what I need.

Still, I've found this AA 1154B on eBay at lower price, around 250USD at auction.

Guys, I've managed to buy Audio Authority 1154B with 75USD from eBay!

Now, my problems is solved and I have what I want. This product does everything for me, but, as new is very expensive and I didn't wanted to pay so much on it.
