Thank you for your useful and positive feedback. The VS2 was that an early model? I’m struggling to find information on these old machines online. No one love them enough to make a website dedicated to them! I wonder what happened to Akai.. did they go and sell their brand? Not many left making VCRs now but I’ve just picked up and sold at Toshiba DVR 20. Didn’t cope with my own type that well to be honest but otherwise a simple and reliable machine.
Thanks for your feedback
