Hello!I think that the higher priced JVC SVHS decks will do better
that the average VHS deck ($100-150), particularly those with
the frame buffers and digital noise reduction. Once read a post
from a guy who had one of these $500 JVC machines, and he said
that the SVHS picture was very comparable with DVD playback. With
that said, I have an older std. Panasonic unit that coast me $250
back 5-6 years ago. I am a heavy mod/tweek person, so I opened up
the unit and changed 5 or 6 critical local power supply decoupling
capacitors to much better and larger units. The results? Both the
sound and picture improved very noticably, at all recording and
playback speeds. So much so that well recorded movies are quite
satisfactory in playback, very clean and clear, with fine sound.
Since my unit uses a switcher power supply, upgrades there would
probably also further improve the unit. The final thought is that
some of the more "middle of the road" VHS decks out there could
probably be very significantly better if a small handfull of the
electronic parts were upgraded. I didnt want to pay a bundle for
good VHS performance.Dan
