R.Cade Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 If done right, absolutely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Absolutely worth it!! I have quite a few 2600 systems modified for s-video and composite output. It makes an amazing difference compared to typical RF input on both CRTs and modern flat panel displays. I cannot recommend it enough. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osgeld Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Yes even simple composite mods done right look night and day better over rf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 RCA looks great, S-Video is amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danny_galaga Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 A yes from me too. Although I must admit the only reason I tried it was because I suspected the RF modulator was stuffed, and this seemed like the simplest way of 'fixing' it!

icemanxp300 Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Is this a good one? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Atari-2600-7800-Composite-Video-Mod-20pcs-Blank-PCBs-/201596929494?hash=item2ef01d05d6:g:XRwAAOSwiYFXLhhV They sell pre-made kits but I figure I can just buy the resistors and stuff separate.

I shared that simple transistor mod to OSH park a while back you can order bare boards there. A minimum of three will be something like $3 https://oshpark.com/shared_projects/DOX9VkSV 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
