Hey guys,

I found a Runco DTV 943..
Is this an upgrade from my Sony 1270?
I'm thinking of getting it for my buddy..

The Cine 7 has more lumens, both are okay for 1080i.

If it's sharper than my 1270, I just might jump on it, and hand over the 1270 to my buddy.... Razz
What do you guys think, if the tubes show up nice and clean...should I go for it? He's not asking much...Say just a tad over what I paid for two 1270's...You remember right J? Wink

THe 708/Cine7 is a lot sharper than the 1270. Nowhere near as reliable though..
