| Welcome to the
first official CRT products list
of 2007! The last newsletter
covered the
CES 2007 show, so this is
the first time I’ve managed to
find time to sit down and write
up new CRT information.
I have not been bringing in
as many projectors for the last
2 months, as I wanted to get my
stock lowered. Over 200
projectors in stock was getting
a bit out of hand! I’m now down
to about 150, so I now have many
feelers out again to bring in
some sets. In the last week I’ve
bought 15 more that are
currently on the way into me
(see the
Upcoming Items page).
I’m featuring the NEC XG line
of sets this time around along
with two excellent condition
Marquee 9500LC projectors. I
have an overabundance of great
condition NEC XG sets along with
a whole bunch of new parts since
I scrapped some of the smashed
case ones. I will have more 9”
sets for sale shortly as I
retube three Barco 1209 units
that came in recently. I have
also bought some minty blue
tubes for the Sony 12XX series
that have been on the site for a
while. As soon as they come in
I’ll be flipping out tubes in
the worst condition sets there
to make them more saleable.
There’s news on the Audio
Authority transcoder front: The
very popular 1365 units are
currently out of stock at Audio
Authority, and I ran out as
well. I have 6 on order to fill
backorders and for stock, and
will order 6 more as soon as the
first lot of 6 comes in. You’ll
notice that I was selling these
1365 transcoders at the same
price as the AA website, $249.
Well. AA just increased their
price to $299, but I’ll be able
to offer future sales at
$275.00. I’ll honor all emails
where I quoted $249, but after
Feb 15 the price does go to
$275.00.
I do also have a few of the
9A65 transcoders at $175 USD.
These work well, and do not have
the internal scaling functions
of the 1365 model.
A PLEA FOR HELP!
Now that this seems to be the
world’s largest site dedicated
to CRT projectors, I’m getting
DAILY emails from newbies
wanting assistance with setting
up their projectors. Those of
you that are now on their second
or third upgrades and want to
possibly make some extra money
assisting others that have just
purchased their first CRT,
PLEASE see consider adding your
contact info to our referral
pages (see here). The more
people that can assist in cities
outside of the Vancouver area
the better. Many newcomers to
the CRT projector world simply
need some guidance on basic
setup. Share your knowledge and
help each other out! If you
offer some kind of CRT service,
such as special lens adapter
rings, performance/fan mods or
something else to enhance the
CRT experience, contact
Kal to have your products
featured on the site!
Parts n' stuff
I am adding parts to my stock
daily. I seem to be one of the
only places left that can repair
virtually any CRT module down to
a component level. With some
other casual resellers now out
of the business, rest assured
I'll support ANY CRT projector
out there, whether purchased
from me or not. I’ve recently
parted out a bunch of NEC XG
sets, so I’ve got a great
selection of XG modules in
stock. I’ve also parted out a
bunch of Ampros and have a good
set of tested LVPS and HVPS in
stock that are stable and run
cool.
Email me for info.
Parts needed
(2) Ampro 2000 style remotes.
I've got a need for two good
working old style Ampro remotes.
I've got lots of sets but few
remotes.
As many 8” tubes as I can
get. I’ve got a lot of NEC PG,
PG Xtra, XG, Barco 808 and
Marquee sets that need green and
blue tubes. I’ll pay reasonable
prices for any 8+ condition blue
and green tubes to finish off
these 20+ sets that I have here.
(4) Sony 07MP or 07MSP tubes.
I’d like to sell off the Sony
12XX units that I have here, but
4 have worn blue tubes. Again,
I’ll pay reasonable going rates
for good blue tubes for these.
(2) each of blue and green
P16 tubes as used in the Barco
708 sets. Again, I’ve got two
great sets here, but with worn
tubes, they can’t be sold.
Thanks for your support!
