Thinking of buying a Widescreen TV?
My Yamaha amp (RVX800) has a couple of
component inputs, and a component output, as does my DVD player although
I've
actually only got comp video connected at the
moment.
I'd certainly be interested in the
i-Scan
Pro 3 if you can get that kind of target
price.
Do you have to fly out and get them ?

IMO component is better that S-Video, whether it's worth the hassle or
not is another matter given that few amps will switch a component
signal
but almost all AV amps will switch S-Video fine. I put Keith's modules
on instead of using a lengthy cable and there was a noticeable
difference in quality, sharpness etc.
As for a line doubler...it's next on my hitlist of things to get,
probably a DVDO i-Scan as its great VFM as well as a terrific little
product. I am talking to a guy in
Canada
and one in the US
about this
just now to see what I can get the i-Scan Pro 3 for as it will accept a
240V supply and handles PAL, NTSC and SECAM. If anyone is interested
let
me know and I'll see in we can organise a "bulk" buy, bearing in
mind
that bulk in this case will be two or three in all likelihood and the
target price is around a "landed" £400 or so, not bad given that
the UK
price is £700.
