Review on πŸ”Œ KanexPro Composite/S-Video to HDMI Converter with 4K Resolution by Chris Thrower

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Terrible compared to the PS1/PS2 pound HD link cable.

I tried to love this product but in return it did its best to make me not like it. While the build and materials appear to be good and befitting a roughly $100 product, the picture quality of my PS1 was terrible. And before I blame the console, I tested another alternative way to get the PS1 to output to HDMI: the PS1/PS2 pound HD Link cable. And with this setup it delivers a great 720p without looking like the mess KanexPro had. The LED on the front is also too bright and even dazzles. It's always on as long as the KanexPro is plugged into the power adapter, and the buttons on the unit feel cheap for toggling resolution, zoom, and input. One felt that he was attempting to use interlacing to increase resolution, but without deinterlacing the final image before output. Idea.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Happily playing over a half dozen 1980s-2000s game systems on our LCD TV
