Hello!

I'm looking for any rack gear for analog video. I've got an Extron Crosspoint switch for RGB, an Extron MAV Plus for S-Video switching, some Blonder Tongue modulators and demodulators for old TVs and RF-only sources, a couple Faroudja line doublers, and other misc. pieces. Since older analog gear is no longer desirable for high-end use, luckily it's not too expensive to put together a nice rack these days. Considering that, I'm interested in just about anything. Generally I want professional grade equipment, unless it's something particularly cool, fun, or useful.

I don't know what all is out there so I would be interested in hearing about anything you've got to sell. I know it would be nice to have some high quality converters with good comb filters for composite video to RGB. I'll certainly need some equipment related to power. I would be interested in pieces that are useful as well as those for fun effects. A full analog signal path with no lag is a plus.

Thank you!

Okay, I will! It's all very much a work in progress. When I get to the shop, I'll take some pictures of what I've got so far.

Nice! Always gotta laugh at Blonder Toung name. Good quality gear though.

Guys

Faroudja VP5000s are cheep today, and was topest scaler in the day at $25000. What was that PC-based rig that Joe Kane used to rave about? From UK?

If you guys are still looking, I'll be listing a ton of Extron and Crestron AV stuff on eBay for dirt cheap this morning. I'll link to one as soon as I have them up, and then click on 'other auctions' to see the rest.

OK, I've listed a ton of stuff. I'd prefer to sell off eBay, but buy on eBay if you want. Combined shipping applies. More to be listed in the next few days, click on my other auctions to see more.
