Hey all - Odd question - But I've gotten into passive switchers for composite. It's working VERY WELL! A bunch of TS switchers for audio and other routing seem perfect for using a phono-to-TS adapter and the audio switcher is instantly a composite switcher between three or four composite signals.
I know there can be an issue with impedance in audio (that can possibly damage equipment) if you sum a bunch of signals using gear passively and I seriously doubt this would be the case for composite (particularly just with switching, which doesn't sum at all, just goes from a selector switch to pick one of four inputs to a single output)
But mostly curious if there's any issue to equipment I should be aware of.
Use case:
Taking a 4:1 passive audio switcher, placing phono-to-TS adapters on all the jacks and taking four separate video signals on a switch to be selected for one output. (no summing, just selection)
Thanks!
