In Reply to: How can I maximize my VCR tape playback for playback through my projector? posted by centurymantra on February 8, 2004 at 10:10:32:

Hi,
I also have 3 projection systems and sometimes sell and buld them up for clients.
I have been into AV for about 15 years and had some nice items.
In my opinion VHS can still be extremely good.
I know DVD has higher picture spechs etc but in terms of a filmic presentation i still consider VHS to have far more depth to the image.

By far and without a shadow of a doubt the best route I 100% reccomend is to go for SVHS.
This will give a far better picture.
The player of choice for this is the JVC HRS 6800.
These can be had for peanuts on Ebay,Originally $1000+ this VCR is the closest i have ever come to perfection ever.

Off air recording has a body to the image that is alsmost unbelevable,On SVHS tapes there is hardly any loss at all.
The sound aswell is phenominal.

I have had over 30 vcr and this is the best yet i have bought.
It was built in a time when Quality was paramount instead of price,To build such an item today would be highly unlikely due to the sheer attention to detail and crafmanship.

On my 100 inch screen the picture on SVHS is stunning.
I hope this helps you out,
JVC HRS 6800 is a jiant step in vcrs.
