Used for my ps2 with a hdmi converter. Works great the quality is so much better that using RCA

Thought I would give this cable a go instead of the more expensive brand on the market. works well with my Panasonic LCD TV 50” with my PS2 Slim. No reported issues with picture or sound. so far so good. Picture quality has improved but would still be better on a CRT monitor or with an upscaler.

This is great, it allows me to use my Playstation 2 with my latest LG Smart TV BUT, and this is something which is not explained IN ANY youtube video or guidance I have watched or read online, you will have to access the system menu in the settings within the Playstation and toggle to the appropriate setting or the TV will register that there is no Component signal (you may hear the sound of the menu screen or the game playing through the TV but you will have no picture). In order to be able to do this you may use the older AV cable, red plug to red receiver, white plug to white receiver and then the yellow plug to the green receiver, this will allow your TV to receive a signal from the Playstation, you will be able to access the setting menu provided you have not put a disc into the Playstation and it is just operating "empty". The setting you want to highlight is the one other than RGB (it is a string of letters). Having done this, you can then hook up this HD Component AV Cable, the colours of each of the plugs correspond to each of the receivers on the TV set and it is good to go. There is some debate about the difference between HD Component AV Cable and PS2 to HDMI Converters. I have both, I am going to comment in a bit more detail on this after I have played more games and been able to assess properly each means of upgrading the PS2 picture for improved TV audio-visuals. What I would say is that so far I think that both the HD Component AV Cable and PS2 to HDMI Converter are better pictures that the previous AV cable attachment which I used to toggle to the other setting (I played a single game which was dark anyway but the picture was awful, really adversely effected play). Neither are necessary to make the PS2 signal be received by the TV and part of my confusion was a consequence of having used a SCART attachment with the AV cable in my previous TV and initially not being aware, when the SCART attachment is removed, which plugs would attach to which colour corresponding receivers (yellow to green). The picture is not great though and I would only recommend using this to toggle the settings and use either HD Component AV Cable or PS2 to HDMI. Thus far my preference is for the HD Component AV Cable but I'm going to update in time. I hope this is helpful, as I tried hard discover this information online and eventually only found it in a video which was listed as comic, I suspect because of issues with it quality.

Cables work great, easy to setup. I’ve tested the PS2 through upscalers etc but this output will provide the clearest picture if your TV supports the input. Just a reminder that you have to change your settings on the PS2 to YPbPr in order to get an image.

Originally a great upgrade that gave hugely improved clarity to the image. But then after a day the cable started failing and causing loss of signal on the video, so I do not recommend buying this cable.

I was a bit skeptical of these cables at first considering their cheap price, but I thought there was no harm in giving them a try. I wasn't ready for such a massive jump in picture quality though. Component video is a complete game changer for any retro console that supports it, even at an interlaced resolution there's such an increase in picture clarity. I've attached two images of Rayman 3, one of only a few PAL games that supports 480p. On the right is composite at 480i, on the left is component at 480p. Not only can you clearly see every pixel, but the clarity of background detail is much improved. Be warned that this cable will reveal imperfections in all of your favourite games! Cannot recommend this cable enough, amazing quality for the price.

It works, for both my PS2 and PS3, but when I did try to use it part of the connector end broke. This hasn’t effected anything, other than how the cable looks, but it does show it’s fairly cheap. However, it works, and I guess I can’t complain too much UPDATE: cable finally gave out after two years of minimal to moderate use (maybe 100 hours tops). Not amused, but can’t expect much more for the price.

Looks like HDMI from a distance. 5 stars

Isn’t working. I’ve connected an old original ps2 cable I just found around and is working fine so just the cable is the problem. Disappointed.

Das ps2 Komponentenkabel bietet ein scharfes, gutes Bild und kräftige Farben. Bin mehr als zufrieden !

Il a fallut aller dans les réglages de la console pour sélectionner le mode de sortie YPbPr, il était sur RGB sur ma console. Une fois ça fait le résultat est excellent, l’image est bien plus nette et les couleurs plus vives. En plus, il n’y a plus ce défaut présent avec la sortie composite où l’image met parfois quelques fractions de secondes à se « nettifier » (surtout remarquable sur le texte).

Genial
