The VA7 motherboard is the one with the nasty audio output.
The non-High Definition Graphics model has motherboard revision VA6 with the EXT port removed, VA6.8 or VA7. If you have a High Definition Graphics Genesis Model 1, it will have motherboard revision VA2 to VA6, which all use discrete Yamaha YM2612s and the same audio amp which give the Genesis Model 1 its trademark rich and bass-heavy audio. I'm the writer of said guide, and yes, ONLY non-High Definition Graphics Genesis Model 1s are at risk of having bad audio circuitry(not hardware - it is different, but not worse). And unless the guide is incorrect, they should have the "good" sound. Unless you're planning on playing lots of unlicensed games the TMSS isn't really a significant issue (and even then it can be worked around). Jifremok, I have two spare HDG Model 1 consoles if you need one - both have TMSS, so I assume they have the VA6 hardware described in the thread linked above - just send me a PM and we can work something out. Hmmm, the guide on Sega-16 makes it sound like all HDG Model 1 Genesis consoles have the "good" sound hardware whether or not they have TMSS, and it's only the Model 1 that doesn't say High Definition Graphics that's at risk for the "bad" sound hardware. As I understand it, some of the High Definition Graphics models that have the licensed by Sega screen are as bad as early Model 2s though. The audio chips and circuitry in these are superior to almost every other model of Genesis 1 and especially all but one model Genesis 2. Yes, especially the High Definition Graphics models with no licensing screen (aka "non-TMSS") when you boot a cart. Is there any difference between the HIGH DEFINITION GRAPHICS model 1 and the model 1 that doesn't have that bit of text? (I have a model 2 now but want to get a model 1 and am not sure if that little detail matters!)
