 Monster 2 Gig splitter is it worth it? March 27, 2004
15 out of 16 found this review helpful
2 words, YOU BET!!!
I was having a problem with my newly installed cable TV.
I had light and dark horizontal bands that would come and go, mostly come.
I had read that the splitters cable companies use are cheap and unsatisfactory.
I decided to spend a few extra dollars and go for the Monster 2 Gig 4 way splitter.
I installed the splitter and VIOLA! no more bands, perfect picture!
I also use Monster Video 2 coxial cable for the connection from the wall to the splitter and from the splitter to my DVD recorder.
If your picture quality is lacking and you're on the fence not wanting to fork out a few extra bucks, believe me it is definitely worth it.

Previously Adelphia had setup my cable using two daisy chained 2 way splitters. This caused my HD signals to drop very frequently, especially on HBO. It was so bad that I couldn't watch the HD feed at all. I was told that this would not solve my problem from a local high end A/V store, but they were dead wrong. Once I replaced the 2 splitters with 1 4-way splitter my signal was perfect. In fact, the reception on the analog stations also improved dramatically. To ensure the best signal I have also added other hardware: 1 Motorola Drop amp, 1 Monster 4 way loss loss splitter, then a Monster PowerCenter HTS 2100 with video filtering.
Just to clarify how splitters work and dB loss... November 30, 2005

The review below about the Adelphia splitter working better than this one is misinformed. All splitters cause signal loss of the split signal -- this is unavoidable (unless the splitter also has a powered amp). Typically this is approximately 3.5dB per split (for 1GHz or less, more above that). The Adelphia splitter was no doubt a 3-to-1 split: the incoming signal was split once and one of the split signals was split again. Thus one output is -3.5db and the other two are -7dB (2 x 3.5). What the Monster splitters do is split the input evenly across all outputs, which really only helps when there are 3 outputs resulting in a -5.7dB drop across all outputs instead of one -3 and two -7. The 2- and 4-way splitter outputs are the same as you'd get from Adelphia or otherwise (either split once or split twice). Clear as mud?
The extra bandwidth (up to 2GHz, most splitters are 900MHz or 1GHz) is another reason these splitters are preferrable to the cheapies.

I switched from a 3-Way radio shack splitter to the 4-way Monster Splitter and even though the signal is now split 1 extra time, the picture has improved on all TV's and the high speed internet speed has improved also. I though I was going to need an amplifier, but there was no need...Hope this helped
Does a great job: signal is much clearer June 11, 2006

I had been using a radio shack splitter and amplifier for years (the
1-to-4 Bidirectional Cable-TV Amplifier). It did a good job, but recently began to fail after many years of service.
I replaced it with the Monster Cable splitter. However, the splitter is not a signal booster, so I also added a
Motorola 484095-001-00 Signal Booster.
This combination made reception much better right away. (Note: the Motorola signal booster has higher amplification than the Radio Shack amplifier.) When the signal booster was coupled with the Monster Cable splitter, reception was great - better than it had ever been. I now receive channels clearly that were always fuzzy with horizontal or vertical bands in the past.
