Saturn RGB Scart Lead with Audio out

[jedah]

Does anyone know if you can buy Saturn RGB cables with separate audio out leads. I have all of my consoles running through my Hi-Fi bar this one.

Or could i disconnect the 2 Audio wires from the Scart end of the lead put phono leads on the end and use it that way. (this is just an idea. I really dont know if this is how it works. So apologies if it is a stupid suggestion.)

P.S. Sorry for the bombardment of questions. I am a bit of an Uber-noob.

What are you saying exactly?

You want to send the RGB signals to one switching box or the TV, while you send the audio the other direction to a audio receiver (or as you said Hi-Fi)?

If this is so I don't believe they sell SCART connectors with the audio cables seperated from the SCART plug. You'll probably only find RGB in SCART form anyways.

What I'd suggest is that if your running multiple consoles RGB via SCART is invest in a SCART switch box; most SCART switch boxes will give you the option to send the audio via the SCART connector or via RCA connectors when it leaves the switch box.

Your other option is hacking the SCART cable and pulling the audio cables and sending it out via RCA from that. But if you've never done this before I wouldn't suggest it as you'll lose a lot of audio quality this way.

why?

Poor soldering, cheap wire, bad shielding... a lot of things will cause sound quality loss. It isn't really noticeable if your just running it to the TV or a cheap sound system. Buy I'm pretty sure that if he has a "Hi-Fi" system he is probably more concerned about sound quality that will show through on a nice sound system as crackling and fuzzy distortion.

something like this would be easiest

but we had just the disc. bout signal quality

That would be the best option.
