Re: How can I maximize my VCR-VHS can still be very good>>>

Hi Bryan,
Thanks for the post.
Great info.
With the JVC HRS 6800 Bryan i would say that it dramatically differs from there modern day VCR,S.
I also had a new JVC Super vhs video and while still very good i sold it due to the 6800,It was vastly superior in every way.

I do have a review of the 6800 from "what video magazine",they went head over heels when writing the review and were extatisk at its performance,This was at £1000 uk pounds?


I also noticed that the sound from this VCR even rivals many hi end gear.I also collect valve pre amplifiers from Audio research,Counterpoint and Sonic Frontiers.
The midband and soundstage from the 6800 are utterly suprising.
I have seen this beast on ebay go for as little as $50?????.
Good point about the rental tapes Bryan,A good quality standard VHS cassete is still incredable from this vcr,In fact the first time i used it i thought i was watching SVHS when in reality it was only standard tape.

I have 3 of the machines as i cannot find any better for any money at all.

I hope all goes well for you,
Kind regards,
Ian.
