March 28, 2005 Here is another list
of used projectors for sale. As always, all prices are in US dollars. If you
want off this list, please shoot me back a quick email and I'll take you off
right away.
First bit of business- my website. If you haven’t seen it lately,
www.curtpalme.com is completely revamped, with lots of new information on it, as
well as a slick new look. The FAQ has been updated too, with some pictures and
added text. My plan is to have a very service oriented website up over the next
few months, so you can identify parts in each make and model, and do some self
diagnosis should you have an issue with a set. Since it takes 8 hours or so to
compile the pictures and text for a set, it will be a long process before I get
every make and model up there, but new stuff is being added weekly. I won’t have
manuals to download on the site, at least not yet, as there are other well known
sites out there with that, links are in the ‘links’ page.
If you have any comments or questions about the site, please feel free to
email me. If you have any pictures or text that you’ve written or have found
useful, feel free to email me those, as I’ll put up anything that has good
general appeal that isn’t already on the web out there somewhere.
WEBSITE HELP NEEDED:
You too can contribute, and you might be able to make a buck or two as a
result..
1) If you have purchased a projector from me, and are proud of your D-I-Y HT
room, feel free to email pictures to the webmaster as indicated on the site. I’d
love to showcase your setup in the gallery. Note of course that we will not post
your last name or address in case there are cretins here seeking installations
to steal..
2) I have a ‘referral’ section that’s currently empty. What I want to do
there is list fellow CRT owners from around the globe, ranging from amateur
D-I-Y installs to multiple CRT projector owners to pro ISF calibrators that are
willing to show newbie CRT owners a good working system, and that might be able
to assist others in the set up. If you have only ever owned a Sony 1031
projector, but know it inside and out, and your picture ‘sings’, you might be
able to assist a new Sony 10XX owner that is having set up issues. Heck, if
you’re really good at what you do, a referral here might give you some ‘play’
money for a long weekend…J
By the same token, if you are a current or new CRT owner and want a pro
install or calibration done to get the most out of your projector, hopefully you
can find a good CRT calibrator in this referral section as well.
Lastly, if you have no interest in calibrating someone else’s projector, but
are willing to open your home to someone that wants to see a CRT system in
action, we’ll list you as well.
Please email your information to the webmaster at webmaster@curtpalme.com.
We’ll list your city and state or country, along with your email address and
your qualifications. Be honest about what you can and cannot do. This referral
list is all voluntary, I’ve only met a few of you, but with this email going out
to over 6000 people, we should have a number of cities and countries covered..
PROJECTOR STUFF:
Note that all projectors that have wireless remote capability now come with
the new style One For All 8 in 1 universal remote control. This replaces the
older style 5 in 1 universal remote that I was shipping in the past. Note that
the NEC projectors will still come with the original NEC set up remote,
mandatory for converging and setting up the unit.
Onto the list!
PROJECTORS
1- GE Imager/Panasonic PT-101Y projector. This is a good entry level
projector that will take a video or S-signal. 600 lumens from 7” tubes, this is
a low hour set. Analog convergence, small and quiet, with only one fan in it.
I’ve sold lots of these, this is the last unit that I have. Simple to set up,
reliable, a good unit for the kids to play video games on. Analog convergence,
the tubes are in good shape.
$400.00
3- Sony 10XX series sets. I’ve got a few of these popular sets in again. 600
lumens from 7” Sony tubes, the same as used in the Electrohomes below. 32 Khz
scan rate on the 1030’s, 36 Khz for the 1031’s. All of the tubes in these sets
are in great shape. The cases range from good to near mint. Very reliable,
analog convergence that is easy to set up. These sets sing with a line doubler.
Very small and quiet operation, I put lots of these into sports bars where they
are run 12 hours a day. One 1031 is on ebay here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=32862&item=5763054875&rd=1
Sony 1030- $500.00 (1 available)
Sony 1031- $550.00 (2 available)
2- Ampro 2000- I’ve got two of these sets in stock again. Very similar to the
Electrohome ECP below, and about the same age as the ECP 4100, these scan to 80
Khz, have a wired remote, and have digital convergence for an easy set up. I’ve
got Ampro 2000 info on my website now as well. Very shallow sets, only 10” tall,
so these are great for low ceilings. One of these has the original Sony SD-187
tubes at 600 lumens, the other has the newer and slightly brighter 750 lumen
tubes. Both sets of tubes are in really good shape. On eBay here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=32862&item=5763050657&rd=1
and
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=32862&item=5763050581&rd=1
I’ve spent a bunch of time working on Ampro modules this past week, and have
managed to repair a few Ampro HV power supplies for various makes and models.
It’s rare that I have stock, so if you need one, let me know. I’ve also found a
repair for these, so if you have a dead one around, there’s a chance that I can
repair it. Contact me for more info.
1- Electrohome ECP 3000. This is a good little set, with tubes in great
shape. 55 Khz scan rate, dual RGB inputs, on screen menus. Very similar to the
ECP 4100 below, but a little older. A low hour set based on the excellent
condition of the tubes, I’m guessing maybe 2000 hours of ‘on’ time. Digital
convergence, on screen menus, modular construction. The focus mod has been done,
a common problem in these sets, (it’s a permanent repair). On eBay here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=15079&item=5763051742&rd=1
$600.00
1- Electrohome ECP 4101. These are great little 7” sets. 600 lumens out of 7”
Sony tubes.. 80 Khz scan rate let these lock onto past a line quadrupled signal.
Digital convergence, on screen menus, modular construction. Stock with two RGB
inputs, switchable via remote controls, a video and S-video card is optional.
c/w a wireless remote. A small and quiet unit. I’ve sold lots of these in the
past with excellent results. Good condition tubes, you’ll get 8000 hours + out
of these. The ACON is included on this one. On eBay here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=32862&item=5763052143&rd=1
$700.00 USD
Note that I’ve got ACON cameras available for the ECP series for $150.00 USD
per camera and PC board. I’ve got about 6 tested units in stock. I’ve also got
lots of RGB input boards and virtually every other part in stock for these.
4- Barco Data/Graphics 800. I received 10 of these, and a bunch flew out the
door right away. I’ve gone through the rest of them now. The actual ‘on’ time of
the tubes is a lot lower than even the 3600 hour count, as the tubes are in
excellent shape. You’ll get 8500 hours + out of these. 58 Khz scan rate for the
Data, 92 Khz for the Graphics makes this set good for well past 1080p or line
quadrupling. . 825 lumens out of 8” Sony tubes. With the low hour count, the ES
focus tubes are still very sharp, and you can still see scanning lines at line
doubling across the room. Video, S-video and RGB inputs. Digital convergence,
very easy to set up, I’ve sold 100’s of these over the years with very few
issues. I’ve done all of the standard modifications to these to improve long
term reliability. On eBay here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=32862&item=5763050935&rd=1
$800.00 for any of these sets.
I’ve got two of these 800 sets that are missing the Barco logo plate over top
of the lenses. I’ll knock $100.00 off the price of any of the above sets if you
can take a set that’s missing this cover plate. You can make one up out of
metal, use it as is of course, or they do come up on eBay once in a while as
well.
I’ve also got one BG 800 here in good shape, but with light text wear on the
blue tube only. I had a similar set listed on ebay recently. This set has higher
chassis hours, but somewhat lighter text wear on the blue tube. The R and G are
fine. I’ll sell this set as –is due to the blue tube, (I’ve done all of the
other mods to it) for $500.00. This one has the cover plate over the lenses..
All other parts and the set are in good shape, and I’ll back this set as I do
all others. Great for gaming, or if you have a good blue tube lying around. You
don’t actually see the text wear in most scenes, so this set could be used as is
for a long time.
Sony 12XX series
I’ve got a bunch of new Sony 12XX sets in. They were sold to me as scrap
sets, but most of them turned out to be better than described. The problem with
some is that they didn’t come with cases. The electronics and tubes are good,
but they are missing some case parts. I’ve discounted these heavily, so if you
are going to build a hush box around the set, or mount it in a coffee table,
then the case won’t be seen anyways. I’ve listed these with the exact
description, and one of the eBay pix shows the typical case condition. All
projectors have digital convergence, on screen menus, come with a wireless
remote, and I back the sets as I do any others. The performance of all 12XX
series sets are quite similar, with the 1252 and 1272’s being the newest models.
These have 21 points of convergence as compared to 9 points with all the other
models, however I maintain that with a careful set up, you can tweak the older
sets to the performance of the new ones. 21 points of convergence is handy if
you’re too lazy to do a careful set up…J
2- Sony 1270. Similar in specs and performance to the Barco G 800 above, the
Sonys use the same tubes as the 800. The reliability is good on these sets, they
are built like tanks. Video, S-video and RGB inputs, digital convergence, on
screen menus. This set is in super condition with no visible wear on the tubes.
You’ll get 9500 hours+ out of these tubes. On eBay here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=32862&item=5749880220&rd=1
$1000.00
1- 1270- same tube condition as the above but with a marked (but complete)
case $800.00
1- Sony 1270- good tube condition but missing the case front and top insert.
$600.00. on eBay here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=32862&item=5763055163&rd=1
2- Sony 1251. A bit newer than the Sony 1270 above, but with virtually
identical specs, I’ve got two of these in good shape. Your choice to buy them
with a case in good shape, or with a scratched case. Tubes will last 7000 hours
or so, they’re in about the same shape as the 1272’s below.
$850.00 with a good case, $650.00 with a marked case, and missing the top
overlay plastic.
3- Sony 1272- similar to the Sony 1270 above, but about 4 years newer. 750
lumen tubes, and 21 point convergence instead of 9 point like the 1270 for
better fine tuning of the convergence. If you don’t care about looks, or are
building it into a coffee table, this is a good way to go. Cases do come up on
eBay every once in a while as well. I guarantee the electronic condition of
these sets like I do all other projectors, but no warranty on the cases. I will
email pix to those that are interested to see what they are like. Tube condition
of these sets is good, and they should all last about about 8000 hours. A
bargain at $1000.00 each. I also have one 1272 with a scratched case, missing
the top insert, with a bit of blue wear, but very useable as is. You’ll get 6000
hours + out of the tubes. $650.00.
Barco 701/701s/708 projectors. If you’re looking for a bright (1000 lumen)
small and quiet projector that is easy to set up, this is it. These are very
small units (approx 28” X 24” X 13”), and are currently also being made for
Runco under the DTV 947 and similar models. Currently also under the Barco line
as the Cine 7 model. These sets started with the Barco 701 projector that used
650 lumen Sony tubes. They then came out with the 701s that bumped the
brightness up to 1000 lumens and used Toshiba tubes. Two models of each were
released, the Vision that scanned to 36 Khz (good for line doubling and HDTV),
and the Data model that scanned to 50Khz (good for up to line tripling). All
models have video. S-video, RGB and COMPONENT inputs, digital convergence, on
screen menus and are very easy to set up. I’ve got 4 units in stock right now.
Three are ready to go, the other one is waiting for parts.
1- Barco Vision 701s. higher lumens, tubes in good shape. Slight 16:9 wear
pattern but very light, you won’t see if if you’re using a 16:9 aspect ratio. On
eBay here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=32862&item=5763051092&rd=1
2-
$1500.00
1- Barco Data 708. The latest incarnation prior to the Cine 7 series, this
set has all new VDC tubes installed with 100 hours of conditioning put on the
set and tubes. 69 Khz scan rate, 1000 lumens, the case is in great shape. You’ll
get 10,000 hours out of this set. On eBay here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5763898406
$2500.00
Zenith PRO 900/ Runco DTV 852
I’ve got three of these sets in again, after not having any for a while. The
two models are the same, but Runco painted the case black and added an internal
line doubler, great for someone wanting an all in one set without the hassles of
dealing with the external cables and switchers associated with a line doubler or
scaler. Both versions of the sets have 7” tubes with 800 lumens, video, S-video
and RGB inputs (the video and S-video inputs are line doubled in the Runco), and
a scan rate to 50 Khz, so you can add HDTV via the RGB inputs down the road.
I’ve recently seen a Zenith Pro 900 hooked to a DVDO HD scaler, and the picture
was stunning on an 84” wide screen. Very quiet. The Runco unit has a near mint
case and comes with the original box, remote and ceiling bracket. The Zenith
versions are white, are a bit scratched, but can be painted to suit, and the
scratches will disappear. All sets have new G and B tubes, the red is original
and in great shape. The Runco is here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=32862&item=5763054714&rd=1
$2100.00
2- Zenith PRO 900 versions (no line doubler) $1700.00 each
I’ve got a slew of NEC PG projectors listed below. Some are ready to go, some
need tubes. I’ve got some PG/PG+ tubes at VDC right now that have smashed safety
glass, but are in good shape otherwise, with only a hint of wear on them. Those
will be back in 10 days or so. I’m listing the condition of the sets, with a
‘good used tube’ price, along with a G and B new tube price.
NEC PG series projector. A step up from the electrostatic focusing sets
listed above, this is an EM focus sets that scan to 60 Khz for the 6 Pg, 90 Khz
for the 9 PG. 800 lumens from 7 1/2" tubes. The 6 PG sets are equipped with an
RGB input, the 9 Pg’s with a video and S-video jack as well as the RGB input.
Many of you know that NEC's are my personal favourite projector for fleshtones.
c/w wireless remote. Perfect for use with a computer or a line doubler/ tripler.
2-NEC 9 PG +. The ‘+’ sets added astigmatism control to the set, which gives
better side and corner focus over the plain PG series. The picture and specs are
otherwise the same.
1-c/w new G tube, original R and B in good shape $1900.00
1- only with 3300 original hours, light G and B wear $1300.00
6- NEC PG Xtra projectors. One slight step down from the NEC XG series and a
step up from the PG + series, these sets put out 1000 lumens. A small chassis
with RGB inputs (optional video and S-video inputs are also available on the 9
PG Xtra), these sets are best suited for use with a line doubler or tripler.
I’ve got about 12 of these sets in stock. All need two tubes installed, and a
couple need all three. I’ll probably part out the ones that need three tubes,
but that still leaves 8 available sets. You’ll get 10,000 hours + out of sets
with new G and B tubes, the green tubes are installed in two of these, with the
blues being here within the week. These sets give a very punchy picture with
super nice fleshtones.
1- 6 Pg Xtra- new G and B tubes, no wear on the red On eBay here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=32862&item=5763053488&rd=1
$2400.00
2- 9 PG Xtra new G and B tubes, no wear on the red. One is on eBay here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=32862&item=5763053594&rd=1
$2800.00
Note that I have about another 10 NEC PG sets in stock in various condition,
but all need tubes, so I’ll retube them as I sell the above ones.
I’ve put together a couple of Ampro 3300 and 3600 sets that are currently on
test run. These came in with text wear on more than one tube, but since I’ve
retubed so many Barco sets recently, I’ve got some good used tubes with light
wear to put into these sets. These 3300’s and 3600’s are as good a performer as
any other 8” 1200 lumen EM focus set. 100Khz scan rate, 1200 lumens,, wired
remote for digital convergence. Easier to set up than an NEC XG series, the
manuals are well written. I’ve now got lots of backup parts for the Ampro sets,
and have run each of these for 100 hours to ensure long term reliability. RGB
input only on these sets. The cases do have some marks and scratches on them.
The 3600 is a bit newer than the 3300, the 3300 has very slightly better tubes
than the 3600, but you’ll get 7000 hours + out of each of these sets. A blowout
price at $1500.00 each.
I’ve gone through a number of my Barco 808 projectors, and here’s what I
have:
As mentioned in my “CRT projector tome”, the basic performance of the BD 808,
BD 808s and BG 808 are about the same, as all use 8” MEC tubes. The BG 808s uses
non rebuildable Sony tubes, so unless these BG 808s sets come in with very good
condition tubes, I scrap the sets. Right now, the Sony tubes for the BG 808s
sets are $1300.00 USD each, but rumor has it that VDC will be rebuilding these
sometime in 2005. All of these sets are 8” EM focus sets, 1200 lumens, have
digital convergence, on screen menus, wireless remotes, and are very easy to set
up. I do the power supply modifications, and I’ve had great success shipping
these all over the world. 75 Khz scan rate out of the Data models, 110 Khz out
of the Graphics ones.
The ‘s’ models come with the IRIS auto convergence camera, along with a 480p
compatible component input.
1- Barco Data 808- original tubes in good shape.: $2100.00 On eBay here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=32862&item=5763051203&rd=1
1- BD 808- new blue tube, R and G in good shape $2500.00
2- Barco Data 808s. light green wear, great chassis $2300.00
1- Barco Data 808s- new green tube, good R and B $2900.00
1- Barco Graphics 808. Light G and B wear, good for 7000+ hours $2500.00 On
eBay here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=32862&item=5763051563&rd=1
2- Barco Graphics 808s. Light G and B wear. Useable for 6000+ hours. $2000.00
I’ve also got a slew of new Marquee sets in as below. Again, I’ve got more in
stock, but all need tubes, so I’ll be retubing as I sell the below ones.
1- Electrohome Marquee 8000. This set is similar to the Barco g 808 above,
but with 1000 lumens from 8” EM focusing tubes. Very similar in set up to the
Barcos in general, these sets are quiet. Not as long as the Barcos in size, they
are about 3” taller than the Barco series. Very modular in construction, and
super reliable. This set has very low hour tubes, and they are in great shape. I
don’t get Marquee 8000’s in with good original tubes too often, so this set is a
great deal. On eBay here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=32862&item=5763052302&rd=1
$2000.00
1- Marquee 8110. This set is similar to the Barco 808 above. 110 Khz scan
rate, This set has new G and B tubes installed so you’ll get 10,00 hours + out
of this set. It has video, S-video and RGB inputs. 1200 lumens from 8” MEC
tubes, you’ll get 8000 hours + out of them. Very easy set up, similar to the
Barco. A little taller but less long than the Barco, the performance is the
same. I’ve got lots more Marquees in stock, I’ve ordered tubes for the rest. The
anamorphic squeeze mod and the power supply mods are done, as they are to all of
the Marquees that I sell. On eBay here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=32862&item=5763053063&rd=1
$3000.00
I’ve got one 8110 not on eBay with excellent all original tubes for 8500
hours + life. $2400.00.
(I’ve got 6 other 8110’s in stock that are waiting for tubes at the same
price)
1- Marquee 8500. In transit to me, this tube has new G and B tubes, and I’m
selling it for a customer that bought it about 150 hours ago. Full warranty on
the tubes in the set (1 year). The 8500 has the astig controls that the 800 and
8110 do not include, for slightly better corner focus. I do all of the mods
required to make the Marquees more versatile and reliable. I’ve sold lots of
these in the past with great results.
$3500.00
I have one 8500 with all original tubes in excellent shape, 8500 hours + out
of the tubes. $3000.00
NEC XG projectors. Once again I have a number of XG projectors in stock, and
a couple more to come in shortly. All NEC XG projectors are true 1200 lumen 8”
EM focus sets. Digital convergence, on screen menus, video, S-video and RGB
inputs are stock, the component option is available on the NEC XG 852 models.
100 point convergence allows for super accurate convergence. The NEC has more
control over the picture than other 8” sets, making a full set up a bit
daunting, but when it’s complete, you’ll find it’s well worth the effort.
Smaller than most competing 8” sets, they’ve been very reliable, and I’ve sold
lots. Note to overseas customers on 220 volts. The basic XG’s are 110V only, but
I’ve found some hard to find 220V supplies that I’ll install for an extra
$100.00. (Sorry, I can’t sell these separately) Here are the details:
1- XG 75. I have gone through this set fully, and it has very light G and B
wear on the tubes, the red is in good shape. The performance of the XG 75 is the
same as the higher end non LC sets, no matter what the specs say. Digital
convergence, on screen menus, video, S-video and RGB inputs. 100 points of
convergence per color, very accurate color reproduction. I’ll test run this set
this week, but the price will be $2200.00 USD.
1- NEC XG 110. Similar to the above units, these models do not have component
input, but scan to 110 Khz. One of these sets belongs to a customer of mine,
1635 hours only on the chassis, good for another 8500 hours. Very light G wear,
none on the R and B. Case in minty shape, c/w original manual, wireless remote
and road case. I’m selling this one for a local customer that bought it off me a
while back, and is moving and does not have the room for it. On eBay here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=32862&item=5763053717&rd=1
(the price has been reduced as per his instructions..
$2600.00
1- XG 110 same as above but with new G and B tubes for a tube life in excess
of 10,000 hours. Excellent operating condition.
$3200.00
1- NEC XG 110LC Good physical shape, new G and B tubes. This is the liquid
coupled version of the plain XG 110, as outlined in my FAQ that explains the
difference between LC and non LC sets. Perfect working condition.
$3800.00.
1- NEC XG 135. New G and B tubes, the flagship of the non LC NEC XG line.
Case in good shape, 135 Khz scan rate. Same specs as the above sets otherwise.
On eBay here:

$3500.00
1- NEC XG 135LC. The top of the line NEC 8” set, with new B and G tubes. In
flawless operating condition. A bit more than other sets on the list, but hey;
this is a top of the line set.. On eBay here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=32862&item=5763053824&rd=1
$4000.00
1- Electrohome Marquee 9000LC. I have one more of these sets in from the same
place that I got the previous ones from. 1200 lumens from 9" EM focus tubes, 110
Khz scan rate, video. S-video and RGB inputs. I’ve done the standard mods to the
set, but have also upgraded the video chain to newer revision video input and
output boards, so for all intents and purposes, this set is now a 9500LC.
Excellent resolutions, an easy and comprehensive set up with very intuitive

3- Ampro 4600’s. I’ve got one of these on my ceiling right now, and have had
it up for about 6 weeks. I need to order a new green tube for mine, it’s got
some wear on it. The blue is brand new. The red is original with no wear. These
are state of the art 9”
sets, and cost $58K back in 1996-1998. Full 9” tubes, liquid coupled. 110 Khz
scan rate. A lot of adjustments on the convergence and picture parameters, this
set is on par with the Marquee 9500LC, Barco 1209s, and apparently the Sony G
90. I’ve checked out the other sets, and they are in great shape. Original
shipping boxes, manuals, ceiling brackets and remotes with both. Light green
wear, the R and B tubes are in great shape. . Very useable as is, there’s no
need to retube these, as the 9” tubes wear more slowly than their 8”
counterparts.I’ve put 100 hours on each set now, and they are rock solid. I love
my personal 4600.. . A steal at: $4500.00 USD each. One is on eBay here:

Miscellaneous
Sony 1270 switchers- I’ve got about 5 of these switchers here. 8 inputs,
modular construction so that you can add extra input modules at will. I’ll sell
the bare switchers at $50.00 each with no input cards. I’ve got rack ears for
some at no extra charge.
Video/S-video input boards $50.00 each
4- assorted 10-20’ surplus RGBS cables, BNC to BNC $1.00 per foot
SIGNAL PROCESSORS
I’ve got stock of some factory reconditioned DVDO line doublers. I’ve got 4
V1’s, 5 V2’s and one PRO version. These are excellent quality little doublers
that have been out there for a while now. The V1’s were the first units with one
video and two S-video inputs. The V2’s added aspect ratio conversion so that a
4;3 image would fit into a 16:9 screen. The PRO versions added one component
input and color and tint controls. These should prove to be less money than
buying one from the US for my Canadian customers. In original box with
instructions, etc. A short 5’ SVGA to 5 BNC cable is included, which may be
extended with BNC to BNC couplers.
V1 $300.00 CDN incl shipping anywhere in Canada.
V2 $325.00 CDN incl shipping
PRO $400.00 CDN incl shipping
1- Focus Enhancements Quadscan video scaler. This is about a 3 year old video
scaler with two inputs, either video, S-video or component, with up to line
quadrupling output. Mint condition w/remote and original box with instructions.
Works well with either digital or CRT projectors. On eBay here:

LUMAGEN
Yes, it’s true, the Lumagen HDP units are FINALLY shipping, and Canada has
some stock currently, however they sell out very quickly, and I’m finding it
very hard to keep them in stock. I am selling these at 5% off the US list price
(with the US pricing converted to CDN at the current exchange rate for my
Canadian customers). I strongly recommend the $100.00 US upgrade for any
Lumagens that have a BNC connector output option (such as the HDP), a BNC
connector is a MUCH better connector than the dinky SVGA connectors. See
www.lumagen.com for the specs and US list pricing.
Upcoming:
2- Sony G 70- unknown condition, two will need tubes.
1- 1998 vintage Barco 1208
2- Marquee 8500
2 NEc Pg Xtras
Do I really need any more sets? Not really, but they keep coming in..
I’ve also got a bunch of other miscellaneous A/V stuff on ebay over the next
few weeks. Keep an eye out for other electronics goodies..
