Some folks have used two Radio Shack component video switches to get an inexpensive 5.1 analog switch. That'll be a good bit less expensive than a Zektor .

You need it to switch six channels together to use a single switch - some will describe this as component video (three channels), stereo analog audio (two channels), and coaxial digital audio (one channel). If it has all of that, a single switch would do the job.

If this is the switch you found, then you could do it with a single switch.
