Re: Best tape for svhs.

24.112.158.244

I will try the TDK HD-X, but it is expensive. Will track down some JVC SV tapes. They better have good episodes of West Wing to justify the cost. There use to be constant testing several years age on audio tapes, but since CD's, I not seen any testing, on any tapes. To properly test tapes one should have an oscilloscope with frequency generator plus a really high end machine. I tried to tell the difference with video essential taped and played back. Not easy with a single machine. I will try to "borrow" another Panasonic 4821 and try A/B on a new Sony 36sbr450 tv, I think the tv is good enough to get a "preference".
Amatuer time.
Give it another year and D-VHS and HD recorders will finish the problem.
Thanks for the reply.
