I never knew Elbox made a Scandoubler FF.

I don't think I heard of GBS-8220 either.  Wait is that the one from Ebay that got all the bad reviews?

The Elbox one is probably much higher quality.

Which Amiga do u want to use it on?

Amiga 500 has only 4096 colors.

Amiga 1200 has 16777216 colors.

1. GBS 8220 does not accept an Amiga signal on the VGA port like it is supposed to.  It rudely blocks the Amiga 15.75Khz signal from the VGA port.

2. It forces you to connect your beautiful Amiga picture to EGA/CGA which I was told blocks the 16.7 million colors of the Amiga.

I would happily buy one if it didn't seem to be junk.

It might be ok only for A500.
