Congrats with the catch. Have you checked out the 909 - how is the condition?

I had to fit a controller, quad and splitter. Tubes look perfect when she fired up. I will do a setup with it this weekend.
First job is to take the colored C Elements out of the 1292 and fit them to my 919.

Just a couple. I now have 3 x Barco 808s, 1 x 919, 1 x 909, 1 x Sony 1292 and 3 x NEC XGs. I don't think I need help yet, however my wife might disagree.

 The Barco Reality 9xx-series will sure give you a lot of enjoyment.

I have had the 919 for some time. Italian. Only got clear C Elements. Looking toward to firing the colored ones. The FR909 will be the spares and test rig for repairs and mods.

The colored c-elements from 1292, will be a nice upgrade for the 919.

I find that getting the projector to that level is half the fun.
