Even with a top notch table saw the domino is still going to be quicker. To do really good ones you need a dado set or a proper cast iron jig which is about £100.
I can't let you get away with that Chems!
You definitely don't need a dado set, although, yes, it's handy, especially for angles tenons on the tablesaw.
A "proper", as you call it, cast iron jig is not at all a good solution. It's expensive, SLOOOOWWW and unguarded, and generally only does one job. A well-designed homemade jig like mine is every bit as accurate, much FASTER (because you only have to clamp each workpiece once instead of twice) and versatile. I cut twin tenons and spline joints on mine. Mine is also much easier to set up, as the fit of the tenon is guaranteed RFTET and the position of it within the workpiece is finely adjustable with just one test cut required. Adjusting this doesn't affect the fit.
I see you are in Northampton. Why don't you pop up the M1 and come and have a look? You'd be most welcome. I'm off now for a couple of days, but I am around most of the time.
If you put mine and a Delta next to each other, you'd be nuts to choose the latter!
I also agree that the bandsaw is a good way, especially for very large tenons such as on the ends of a bed rail.
