I recently purchased a second Genesis console (intended for part of a trade which will most likely not come to pass) and while testing it, I noticed something odd.

The video quality was a lot better than my other Genesis' video quality. The video seemed a lot less blurry than my other system.

The only difference was that this new Genesis appears to be a pre-lockout (TMSS) system with an EXT port, and my older one is a post-lockout system without a port. I'm playing with a standard A/V cable, not RF.

So was I imagining things? Or is there really a video quality difference between the two?
