NESRGB Audio: HVC-101 vs. NES-101

Post by daskrabs »

Can anyone comment on the audio volume and interference level on an NES-101 that's modded with an NESRGB? I have a HVC-101 that's modded NESRGB and the audio (stock) is louder and clearer than my NES-101 that has a PC10 PPU. I know that in terms of video, I'd see gains by switching to NESRGB, but I'm wondering from NES-101 owners what your audio thoughts are. If you comment, please indicate if you're using the multiout cable with audio or if you're using a separate audio cable. Also indicate if you use the NESRGB's audio or the standard audio.

If I'm not mistaken the HVC-101 is the AV famicom right?

For my customers that sent me this system I don't use the NESRGB audio circuitry at all. This system already has a Nintendo multiAV port with audio (dual mono bridged on pcb by Nintendo). All I do is run RGB, composite, S-video and raw sync from NESRGB to the multiAV port.

If your case you'll get the best of both worlds.
