Yes, I am in the market for a VCR, believe it or not. I want to get a
highly durable unit that delivers excellent picture and sound quality.
I am looking for a "last you'll ever buy in a long while" type of
model before VCR's fade away to DVD players. Still have alot of VHS
tapes and watch obscure movies that probably won't make it to DVD.
However, I don't want to shoot myself in the foot cost wise to obtain
one. I guess the point where I will start shooting myself in the foot
is around $500-$600.
From searching the web it seems that JVC is still in the market for
making higher end VCR's. However, a gut feeling tells me not to trust
JVC (probably because I have seen so much of their cheap mass market
stuff break down, like my mother's VCR).
Would like to hear other people's opinions on this matter who are
knowlegable of VCR's. If this can only be done out of the $500=$600
max range, oh well. What would be the "Nakamichi tape deck equivalent"
to a VCR make?
