Review on πŸ”Œ 3 Gang Wall Plate with 7.2 Surround Sound Distribution, Banana Binding Post Couplers, RCA Jacks, and HDMI Ports for Home Theater by Danny Zapata

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Best way to connect multiple speakers

This plate was straight to the point and made hooking up to the home theater so much easier, now I can just plug the receiver straight into the jacks. Cable management is now behind the wall! Can't comment on the quality of the HDMI ports as I used HDMI elsewhere in my setup and used that hole for a 6 port keystone plate which I then used for the CAT6a network ports. I'm only mentioning this because someone might have a use case to replace the included HDMI connectors with something else that works better in their situation. This is easily possible if you have a standard keystone plate. The HDMI plate can be easily unscrewed and another plate can be mounted just as quickly. The reason I removed a star from this review is that the subwoofer connectors were not appropriate for the item I received. After setting everything up and mounting it on the wall, I plugged in the subwoofer cable and immediately heard a steady bass signal coming out of my subwoofer. Since my receiver was off, I knew it wasn't coming from any particular source. I removed the wall plate and noticed that the subwoofer jack was broken on the inside and the inner plastic connector was pushed back. This caused the subwoofer's signal pin to touch ground, shorting out the wire. I threw the cable to the second connector and he immediately broke it too. I chose not to return the plate because I had extra RCA keystones and just removed the connectors from them and installed them in this wall plate. After that there were no more problems with the breakdown. So watch out for extra connectors when purchasing this product as the plastic looks a bit brittle and may break over time if not immediately.
