So, I know there is a bit of a debate out there, about which Genesis system has the best sound output. I don't know all the details about it, but I think there is a certain early Genesis model, that has a certain audio chip that people tend to say offers the best sound for the Sega Genesis. The Model 1 Genesis unit that says "High Definition Graphics" on the top of the console is the right model, although apparently there are certain versions of that Model that don't have the good audio chip, and certain versions that do.
Anyways, what I really wanted to ask is, if you have your Genesis hooked up to a Sega CD, and you're using the red and white audio out plugs of the Sega CD to go to your stereo, does it matter which version of the Genesis you're using ? What I mean is, if you have that certain Model 1 Genesis that supposedly has the right sound chip, and you're playing Sonic the Hedgehog on cartridge, and using the Sega CD audio out, will you notice a difference in sound quality ?
I currently have a Genesis 2, connected to a Sega CD 2, along with a 32X hooked into it. I'm pretty happy with the setup, but if I can really get appreciably better sound from a Model 1 Genesis, and hook it up to that Sega CD 2, even though it will look a bit fugly, I'd probably go that route, because having the best possible audio would be kinda preferred.
I was just curious if using the Sega CD audio output makes the whole point moot. I'm guessing it would in regards to Sega CD games, but with the carts I'm not sure.
