Newsgroups: net.video,net.audio Subject: HI-FI VCR QUESTION Message-ID: <556@aluxe.UUCP> Date: Mon, 10-Dec-84 15:29:39 EST Article-I.D.: aluxe.556 Posted: Mon Dec 10 15:29:39 1984 Date-Received: Wed, 12-Dec-84 04:13:30 EST Organization: AT&T Bell Laboratories, Allentown, PA Lines: 10 Xref: watmath net.video:806 net.audio:3671 My roommate is looking for a HI-FI VCR. He has a Sony Beta HI-FI in mind. I don't know which model. Anyway, I asked him why he chose to buy a Beta HI-FI instead of a VHS HI-FI. He stated a few reasons but one in particular I have to question. He desires to use the VCR to record albums which he insists can not be done with a VHS HI-FI. Can a VHS HI-FI be used to record just audio without a video signal present? If not, why not? This article is not intended to discuss which VCR format is better because no matter which type he buys I GET TO USE IT! Please mail responses to me. Joseph M. Dakes aluxe!jmd
