Re: VCRs: Sony SLNV99 or JVC HR-S5911

I'm having problems receiving the stereo signal on all channels on my 7800. My 11 year old RCA VCR, Admiral 27" and GE 20" have no problems. This has occured in two residences and over the air and cable. When it works, it's great. This is the only JVC product I've ever bought and because of this problem (I didn't realize I had it until it was too late for return or warranty repair and they probably wouldn't be able to locate the problem at the repair shop) and the ultra-cheap build (it's the flimsiest A/V product I've ever purchased), I would not recommend JVC for anything. Vann's on the net has NOS Sony S-VHS units for $600. They were originally much more and are built more like VCR's used to be built. Panasonic produces some professional grade VCR's that may be worthwhile. Mitsubishi has some S-VHS units that appear more solid than JVC. Anyway my 2 cents worth.
