Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Dayton Audio HDMI-WP2 Dual HDMI Wall Plate
Customer Review: Works well, but be aware of different versions
Summary: 4 Stars
I installed 2 of these - one at each end of an in-wall connection - and they were simple to install and have worked well so far. The pigtails made the installation simpler.
On one occasion trying to run a DVD running over HDMI I got video but no sound, but a power off/on of the components fixed that. That has only happened once in the past few months and seems like an HDMI handshake issue, so I can't be sure if that was really due to the wallplate or not.
Rather annoyingly I ordered this specific one (from CE Compass at the time) at a higher price than another similar supplier on Amazon because it was different in the pictures. At the time I ordered, this item only showed the fully smooth wallplate with the white screws. Unfortunately what I actually received was a different version (which I could have ordered from the other supplier for less) which has a recessed "insert" with raised edge around it. This has the effect of making it look like I installed the insert back-to-front or like its a special kind of plate, and I believe most people would want it to just look as much like a standard wallplate as possible.
So, it works well, but be aware that you might get either one of the variants in the pictures (the weird version I got is now shown in the images so you can see the difference with the raised edge around the central "insert" on the front).
Update 9/17/09:
I haven't had any more lost video or audio signals beyond the one instance reported in the original review, so it definitely seems like that was a one-off HDMI handshake issue. I still recommend the unit.
