As per preliminary taster thread; here I can now proudly announce that we have our first batch of Atari 2600VCS PureVideo VEC's available, for purchase in full self install kit form, which offers the best composite video output possible on the 2600VCS.
As we all know,... whilst the 2600 is lots of fun the RF aerial output is dreadful and the AV solutions previously available were shaky at best and required a good degree of butchery to install. The PureVideo module sits very neatly soldered dierctly beneath the TIA chip and draws Pure composite AV direct from source without requiring any alterations to the pcb. Rather cleverly the design also uses a stereo jack socket as the output which looks very much in keeping with the Atari's original design. this could not be achieved with bulky RCA connectors.
This PureVideo VEC solution was commisioned by myself and designed by Amibay's very own TC as a geniune easy install kit which gives consistantly good results every time. The module will work with all PAL models of the 2600VCS from 6 switch Woody to the junior models and we will supply a comprehensive installation manual (via email attachment or click on the attached PDF file at the bottom of this post) along with all the parts required to hook up to your TV.
Each kit includes;
1 x PureVideo VEC board
1 x VEC to output socket fly cable
1 x Stereo AV output socket
1 x Stereo AV aerial cable
Installation will require rudimentary soldering skills, so if you have never picked up an iron before, or you have and were not very good at it then contact either myself of TC for details of our fitting service.
We are currently also working on testing with NTSC 2600's and would ask you to contact either TC or myself should you require this module for an NTSC machie
Amibay exclusive price - £26 plus postage
More photos including screenshot will be added shortly
