Thanks for the information...I may keep my eyes open for one of those VCR's as I'm not opposed to trying out a different player. However, I'm mainly concerned about playback of video tape rentals that will, alas, not be recorded in SVHS mode. In this case, it may be hard to get past the limiting resolution of the format. I suppose it may be possible to get a scaler of some kind to boost the lines of resolution; but not without an investment that probably isn't worth it. I have a more recent JVC SVHS player and have noticed that tapes recorded in this mode are surprisingly tight. I do also, to some degree, agree with your observations on the film-like quality of a decent VHS tape recording. The lack of motion artifacts is a refreshing change of pace after becoming accustomed to DVD recordings. At this point, I'll just be watching VHS on the 27" TV and calling it good (for now).
