Though I'm not a donator and will probably never see this set, I am curious; how does the quality compare to Arnie's V8 and Dark Jedi & Segaflip's collaborative transfer of it?

As I said on page 63, according to the sample Dark Jedi released, there is a very slight amount of rainbowing, and the detail level is just slightly lower than the V8 (but whether this is due to the hardware used or the noise reduction, I couldn't say).

The V8 suffers from a bit of chroma shifting that this v2 doesn't have, though, and there's a bit of noise if that sort of thing bothers you.

I've only seen a small, two-second clip of the Dark-Sega set, and a handful of screenshots, but I'd say the v2 looks far better.
