Rating: - AV Cable for Genesis 2 - A WINNER!!!
Why choose this cable over any other for your Sega Genesis? It's better than using standard RF! Anyone who has used this audio video cable can see right away that it offers improved graphics and sound if your TV (or VCR) has video input jacks. RF cables for video game systems have never worked well for me and I have personally sought to convert to RCA style or S-Video cabling whenever possible. This cable in particular will provide crisp, clear graphics and clearer stereo sound from your Sega Genesis. Is it truly stereo? Well, that probably isn't so, but there is a marked improvement over mono sound AV cables that I have used and this difference is probably only true if you have a quality sound system (I use a modest Technics with amp and eq). There is no comparison to the crappy RF cable that I've found to kill a lot of midrange sounds or shadow them entirely.
I would also point out that if you are an occassional gamer, who only plays on a weekend or once a month and you like to store your system between usage, this cable sets the system up much easier. If you want to just plug and play, then this is the way to go. I find that RF cables require screwing on this or that, wiggling the cable, shaking the box, doing a dance and jig to get it to work. With the AV cable for Genesis 2, you just plug it in. This is especially handy if you have AV jacks on the front side of your TV or VCR. Setup in such a case is about a minute.
Please note:
THESE STEREO AV AUDIO VIDEO CABLES FOR THE SEGA GENESIS ARE ONLY FOR SYSTEMS 2 OR 3 BUT NOT THE FIRST SYSTEM MODELS # 1601,1602 OR 1603.
To my knowledge there is no AV cable for the first system. If you do not have a system 2 or 3, I strongly encourage you to upgrade to one of those systems, not just to use these great cables, but to treat yourself to a much better product.
Rating: - Great item
received item in new condition, works great. having fun playing my old sega now ;)
Rating: - works very well
This cord does exactly what I wanted it to do-attatch my Sega Genesis (version/generation 2, I think) to my TV, without the annoying screw-in wires. I've had no problems with the cord and it works fine.
Rating: - It works.
There's not much to say other than this is for the Genesis2, not the Genesis1. Otherwise the cable works as is intended.
Rating: - Maybe not the best
This is a great piece of hard ware BUT, it is mono. When the Genesis 3 was released by majesco is came with a mono cable, but the original was stereo. I think that the best thing to do is get the stereo one for the Gen 2 and use that. It is much better to have stereo especially since most technology is now stereo.
