Consumer review (newegg.com)

Great Product

 

Get it.

Works great, looks great, gets the stations I never knew were available. Invisible in operation......Can't ask for more

The power transformer outlet cable developed an open or short ; Newegg to the rescue....another coming

Works GREAT for me

 

It looks really cool.

I know that people have mixed results with these things, but this one works GREAT for me ; Without it, I can only get 4 DTV stations, and three of those are Spanish stations. Hola, españoles ; With it, I get over 20 stations, including all of the major...

The way the power cord connects is a little weird

Worthless antenna

 

I would say not worth more than $1, just to give it a try. I have tried it at several TV units, latest high-end SONY with good tuner - this antenna doesn't receive well. Look for something better. It is equal to a bare rabbit ears.

Looks very attractive, thus the one star. Performance-wise it is zero

It is almost completely worthless. Anything else will perform better. Even if you stick a bare cable in the antenna IN, will get at least the same signal

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Wasn't what I hoped, but was what I expected

 

I can't really blame the antenna as I am fairly far away from my sources. I did see a minor increase in signal strength, though it is hard to quantify. I'm not sure it provides significant benefit over my existing, cheaper, non-powered unit. If I don't...

Nicer looking than rabit-ears or loops ; Does help with signal strength

Doesn't help as much as I hoped

It's cheap.

 

It works

It's not that great either. You get what you pay for

Performs Poorly

 

Low cost, amplifier built into the antenna. No build quality problems with mine

Not a directional antenna so it will only work for local stations. Several different directional antennas (amplified or not) received more stations and had fewer dropouts for me than this antenna

Worse than my rabbit ears non-amplified antenna

 

Compact, sleek, and reasonably priced

It is worse than my original rabbit ears non-amplified antenna. Without plugging in the power on this unit, I was getting most of the channels that my rabbit ears non-amplified antenna was picking up, but the signal quality on a few of the channels...

Don't waste your $$$.

 

It looks OK, but from there everything is downhill

This thing is a pile of junk. The spread of this antenna was not what I thought it would be based on the manufacturers specs. I tore it apart and found a shoddy solder job that included one broken connection. What other people have said is true. Stick...

Rosewill RMS-DA8300 Amplified Directional Digital TV Antenna - Indoor

 

none

I owned a Rosewill RMS-DA8300 Amplified Directional Digital TV Antenna for more then 2 months now. I don't think it's a good product. It didn't improve the signal my TV was getting at all. As a matter of fact, I lost a few channels that I had before I...
