Home Video Asylum

TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

I'm listening... but which one?

Thanks Grant. Any recommendations? At last count, the biggest retailer here only had Sony, Sharp, and one or two others. The line-up of purebred VCR's (as opposed to disk and cassette combos) were priced at somewhere between 12,000 to 20,000 yen — say $150 on the average.

One other question: how do you think they will perform compared to the better older machines when they were new?

BTW — ALL of this lineup boasted 19 micron heads. At the time I was thinking 'so what?' I thought the head gap was optimized for a specific recording speed?
