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

Got full bandwidth as promised
A Time Warner Tech told me that in order to get good reception from the lower and upper channels I needed a good quality splitter, not the cheap ones that you can get at Radio Shack (which I had used). Suspicous, I researched this and boy was he telling the truth! The SS2RF provided much better clarity and got rid of the distortion that I assumed was the fault of the cable provider. Definitely worth the extra money when you consider how much you already have invested in your AV equipment.

Excellent Splitter
I purchased two Monster splitters to replace some RadioShack brand splitters I had on my home cable TV setup. One splitter resides outside my house splitting the cable between two TVs and the other splitter is inside splitting my TV and DVD player inputs.

I had replaced a few other components (cables) due to a less than perfect signal on the lower band stations (Channels 2 thru 6) and a couple of other stations on the higher end of the spectrum.

The new splitters made a difference. The low channels are now perfectly clear. I swapped the old and new splitters around in various combinations, but found that the two Monster cables produced a slightly better signal when just one was used and a great signal when they were used in unison. The splitters being replaced where not old, so it appears these Monster splitters made a difference.

Unless you have a need (satellite TV) I would stick with the Monster standard splitter and not spend extra money on their "premium" splitter. The premium model is about twice the price. The gold plating content is the same and its only the frequency range that is associated with satellite TV that would matter to you with the premium model.

So:

Cable TV: buy the Monster standard.
