Bose V25 and HDMI hub (or extender)

Mar 31, 2015 8:43AM PDT

Hey people,

I have a bose v25 that i love and its great. I have plugged in it the following item in HDMI, my decoder, my blueray and a WD live tv.

Now Im figuring that I do not have enough HDMI to plug in the Chromecast which is also HDMI, do you guys have a suggestion for a HDMI hub or expander (not sur of the correct name) that would work with my bose?

or would I loose allot of quality if I putted in my blueray in component vs HDMI?

thanks people

I've yet to find quality lost through any HDMI switch.

Quality isn't the issue with going back to component

It's a question of whether or not it will still be sent along properly to your display.

I second Bob's suggestion to grab a simple 3x1 HDMI switch from Amazon. There are plenty of decent choices in the $20 range.
