Should I get a XRGB 2 Plus?

Post by Darksakul »

Is it worth for me to get a Xrgb 2 Plus for my HDTV with VGA input?

certainly worth your while. Just keep in mind that VGA inputs on HDTVs are disappearing fast. Hardly any major set of this generation has one left.

Thanks for the Reply.
I found a US seller whos willing to part with his XRGB 2 Plus for a reasonable price.
I did try to google for information, and most reviews are ambiguous or not clear about the device.

I basically started the review on my website with the XRGB-3, but I had the 2plus before that. Performed very nice. Very easy to use. Depending on the display it can exhibit a little shakiness on the vertical horizontal sync.

Yeah the XRBG 2 Plus is a Huge improvement from a GBS-8220 with a custom connector for scart

absolutely. Just remember that the XRGB has a JP21 input, not a european Scart one.
