I think you mean the rf-modulator from Philips (have the same)

Very good video quality without any visible noise. Although the stereo
sound is ultra clear without any bandwidth degredation.
And the best is we have a back channel for remote IR control signals.

In case of cheap devices there is always a tradeoff between price and
quality. For some month there was a rf-modulator set at the NORMA
discount for 119.- DM. But here the audio sound was really terrible.
(band limited at 8 kHz).
