anyone know a HIGH-QUALITY video/s-video switcher?

63.114.211.35

i'm looking for a very high-quality audio/video/s-video switcher for my system. most of the ones i've seen (sony, radio shack, sima) are cheap and would compromise sound and picture quality. there is one high-quality one, the Entech DAV-4.1, it seems nice but is a little expensive. also, if i'm switching between svideo and video sources, and i output both svideo and video to my TV, i'm not sure my TV will auto-detect which of the two is active... i think most TVs will prioritize the S-video input if something is connected, whether it is active or not. any way around this w/o having to switch inputs on my TV? what would be nice is a switcher with a built-in high quality comb filter to always output svideo no matter what, but that is probably either not made or very expensive. i was debating making my own switcher, but that would be a lot of trouble for something fairly simple. i would basically just like seamless switching of mixed video/svideo sources into a single svideo tv input with minimal video AND audio signal loss. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
