Hi Jerry,

Thanks for the offer but I've stopped collecting DVHS for a few years now, mainly due to technical issues with my players - image drop outs, sound drop outs and also because of mpeg2 artefacts in the broadcasts. I stopped collecting D-Theater when the format died. However, I do now have a nice collection of 100+ HD movies on tape to use (at least until the player packs up!) while I build up my HD discs collection.

As for the Faroudja 5000 - it was *great* in it's day but is now retired. I currently use a Lumagen ProHD which outperforms the Faroudja in all ways with film based material and very importantly allows me to do 48Hz refresh. The Faroudja still wins with video but I rarely watch video based material in my cinema so that is a non-issue. Hopefully the new Lumagen models will crack the video side of things...
