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?
