I finally got the gumption to get a hush box and hot air evacuation...and yet, I never use the damn thing. I still watch movies on my 34" xbr tube. I'll consider parting it out if I get interest. The tubes are good, with green showing very, very light but wide and even wear.

Let me know what you're interested in and we can discuss pricing.

It's an XG 1101 LC.

I have the mount, remote...and even a custom hushbox

LC hardware?

[benareeno]

I would sell the tubes with lc hardware for 400. Tubes with lenses would be 450.

[jarseneau]

Any pics of the tube faces? Or is it that only the green is showing wear?

[benareeno]

you are correct sir...I will try and snap some pics though.

[bbartine]

Which mount do you have?

How much for the mount?

[benareeno]

I have a mix of the NEC mount + uni-strut...I would say 50 bucks + ship.

[dmvining]

do you know will your lc parts convert an xg135 non lc?

[benareeno]

You may need another piece from the case...I think. Which I could also sell you.

[dmvining]

i have understood lc is liquid coupled tubes to lenses. are your tubes coupled to your lenses and if so how can you separate them or are you also selling other lenses or am i just mistaken?

[ecrabb]

LC doesn't mean the lenses are coupled to the tubes as though they can't be taken apart. It's just that in an air-coupled machine, the tube's liquid cooling tank is optically flat. The lens mates to that. In an LC machine, part of the whole lens assembly is attached to the tube's LC chamber - where a piece of flat glass would normally be in an air-coupled machine.

Here's a G70 (liquid coupled, just like XGLC) with the lenses removed:



Notice the lens (called a C-element) in front of the face of the tube.

Here's an air-coupled tube - I think it's an XG:



Notice how there is no lens at all - only a flat piece of glass in front of the tube face.

So, just as Ben is offering, it's entirely possible to sell tubes with LC chamber and c-element attached, and with our without the projection/focusing lenses.

I could sell you the tubes (which include the c-elements) and the lenses. You can't use your existing lenses...as for the chassis, I'm not entirely sure what would be required, but if anything is required, I have it

Hi,
If your going from AC to LC. You need tubes,chambers,lenses upper and lower mounting brackets and the front cover to make the complete swap. Make sure you have the shipment Insured better safe than sorry.

Gday Benareeno, a good mate of mine would like shots of those tube faces, and if the tubes are kosha, he will make arangements to purchase them for his XG. He wants the LC lenses to go with them. All 3 tubes, all 3 lenses.

He is currently having issues with his internet connection, and that is preventing him from voicing his request himself, hence, i am present merely as a spokesperson.

I will continue to check this thread incase he is unable to read or reply dirrectly, and i will pass on any correspondence as soon as i can to ensure a smooth deal is done.

Cheers.

[benareeno]

red and blue are mint...so I will get you a green pic. I took one, but there's a light shining on the tubes, and it just doesn't quite look right.

[CasetheCorvetteman]

Ok mate thanks

[CasetheCorvetteman]

How are we coming along there mate?

[benareeno]

Here is the green...others can comment as to how good they think it is..I think it is quite good.

[Aussie_Al]

Cheers Case, net appears to be back to normal again now

Ben, if they are still available I will take them.

[Brad S]

Do you still have your custom hushbox? I may be interested. Could you post pictures or describe what you have?
