I am looking to buy the A/V add on for the US TG16 system, that enables output through standard A/V cables.
I am not sure how much these go for generally, Ebay didnt provide any clues and any info is welcome. The RF just stinks on my TG16, looking for a solution =)
I have feedback here under my thread in the appropriate forum.
Thanks for any help.

My suggestion is this.

It may look kinda funny without a cd drive on it, but it gives you ability to ad the cd drive later. Also it is new. And it about the same price I have seen some a/v boosters go for on ebay.
I don't care for redfrog, nor do alot of other tg collectors. But they do have some decent deals on some stuff. And this seems to be pretty fair.

Keep in mind,that if you are going to get the TGrafx 16 Interface , you are going to have to buy the proper power supply for it as well...

Hm, that would solve the problem in a pinch. I essentially have the US TG16 just for US Hucards, my CDs and Japanese Hucards I play on my Duo. From what I understand the pinouts between US and Japanese systems for the Hucards are switched around so thats what prompted the purchase of the US unit.
I did find an AV booster at one place, but they want $50, and now I better make sure it comes with the right AC adapter too. Thanks guys,
I can't imagine what all of this would have cost back in the day, aie.

The radio shack equivilant for the a/c adapter for the TG CD drive is part# 273-1775. This is the closest to original as you will find for an a/c adapter.

Well, guess what guys?....After seeing at all the trouble that Arasoi was getting to find a turbo booster, I decided to give it a shot....Success......Today, I've developed a customized A/V mod for the TurboGrafx 16 system....Yes, the same original composite video and stereo sound....
