Ok firstly I would like to say hello to everybody within this forum. From looking at the posts there are a mixture of outright crt guru's down to newbie's like me. I do like reading to the various issues and solutions surrounding PJ's. I have not yet officially entered the crt world as I do not have a fully functional set-up but intend to have one in the not too distant future. I have acquired two barco projectors one a non functional data 600 (could be simple fault) and a working data 800. I have a few probably blindingly obvious question that I'm sure someone can answer.
1. How can you tell how many hours the tubes have had clocked up.
2. What signs exist if the tubes are on the way out.
3. Are there any prone areas on the 800 that I should look for to see If I have a outright royal sea going cockup of a unit or a worthy unit to set up in my home cinema.
These are opening questions but I would like to inspect the units in order to see If I have a pile of pap or decent machine. Any help to a newbie crt owner would be most appreciated.
I think I will be contacting gizlaroc because I have heard he is a specialist for the Norfolk area in crt service and repair.
Good day to all those within this forum.
Cheers
Duff
