SPECIALTY-AV SCART to Component Video Converter for Sega, Genesis, Atari Review

So I picked one of these up recently, hoping to get the best possible picture quality with my Sega Saturn on my modern Samsung LCD - and no question, the picture is sharp as hell. That being said, expect a few hassles before you're up and running:

1) You'll need a SCART cable to run from your console to this box (duh), but most importantly: you'll want to head to eBay (or whatever) and find a SCART cable with RCA out built into it, for your audio. The box doesn't output any audio at all, so you're looking for a cable that will have three ends: the SCART (which will plug into the box), and the two audio (which will plug directly into your TV). Or, if you have the mad cable-making skilz you could make one yourself.

2) You'll need a Component cable (just the 3 video, you don't need the 5-end one with audio because you've got that in your custom SCART, remember?) to run from the box to your TV, and finally

3) You'll need a small phillips screwdriver, because almost undoubtedly you'll have to pop the box open when you get it and adjust the output - people have said their colors were all out of whack using this right out of the box, and mine was no different. You make these adjustments by putting in a game with a good mix of colors on screen and fine tune until everything looks right and the whites don't have a tinge. Don't worry: I'm not a technical person, but it's fairly simple. You'll see a few little plastic pots you can adjust with the screwdriver: the one closest to the component out adjusts green vs. blue (one way is more green, the other more blue), and the pot closest to the SCART adjusts the red. I don't know what the others are so you probably shouldn't mess with them.

Once you jump through all the above hoops (and assuming you're okay with the mess of cables you now have), you'll be happy. The picture is as clean and crisp as an emulator - far superior to S-Video, and totally worth $50 or so.
