If anyone is interested in modding an Atari VCS (2600) for similar high quality output, Tim Worthington's excellent Atari RGB mod kit is an easy and affordable way to upgrade it. https://etim.net.au/2600rgb/

Don't undersell things-- I would say the 2600rgb is a much higher quality source than a composite mod!

I'm still pretty happy with the S-Video mod I did on my personal 2600, but even that's still less crisp than you can get with RGB.

Any advice on good composite and/or S-Video mods for the 2600?

This is the mod I used; pretty good but I had to dig into the AtariAge forum for the right configuration for my 2600jr https://thebrewingacademy.com/products/tba-ultimate-atari-vi...
