I have about 9 consoles hooked up. 3 of them use those little adapters, they do help the quality a lot, but it still isn't near the quality of the pure composite, you can even go and pull pure RGB out of almost all consoles, the only ones that come to mind that you can't are the 2600 and the NES. The 2600 because it outputs Chroma and Luma directly, and the NES I don't remember the exact reason...but it can't be done without replacing a chip.
