Amiga 500 on a CRT TV?

[Nikolai]

So I was just curious how it would be possible to use an A500 on a Flat screen CRT (Toshiba 14AF42). The TV is NTSC and has composite, s-video, RF, and Component inputs. Just need to know what kind of converter cables would be needed to keep the best video quality (or if its even possible w/o too much quality degrading).

Thanks!

Hmmm...well I think I'll try the 520 adapter for now. neobitz has a very interesting mod for RGB to Component that only requires some good soldering skills (which I have ), but again I think I'll a wait a bit for that.

Found an A520 on ebay, starting at 20$...hmmm...probably gonna spike to 40 or 50 soon though..

I have pretty good soldering skills (YAY FOR STAIN GLASS ART CLASSES!! ), but yeah, those schematics and component stuff meant nothing to me.

I would love to just go out and buy a scart tv, but I'm rather short on money right now for that sort of thing

Would buying a db23 to vga adapter and then a vga to svideo cable work? Or would this degrade the quality after so much conversion? This setup seems like the least expensive (I cringe at the site of the prices of those all-in-one converter boxes) and doesn't take good knowledge of modding computers or knowing someone who does.
