If I had money for every time someone posted about them I'd be rich.

They are shite. They are only 16-bit which means you loose colours in AGA. They promote PAL screens to 60Hz which means that you loose smooth scrolling.

There are better, cheaper alternatives out there.


Gotta agree with that, if you want a decent convertor your gonna have to pay through the nose for one. Worth the money though if it's something you use all the time and value the best picture quality... :)

I always buy such things from Keene Electronics, quality made and built to last for years but you're looking at around £100 minimum for their basic stuff... :)

... maybe I'm a little anal about these things but hey, we all have our quirks.


You're not alone, every TV & monitor I've ever owned whether bought brand new or second hand, I've always taken the back of it to physically adjust the rings on the tube to get the perfect picture and adjust all the pots to make everything spot on... :)

The trouble with old CRT's when manufactured is they were only set to be adjusted to an "acceptable" standard that most folk would be satisfied with, while fussy buggers like me had to risk electrocution and do it ourselves to get the very best out of them... :)
