The Sony SLV-N80 4-head VCR is equipped not to only record and play VHS tapes, but also deliver enhanced video resolution because of its Reality Regenerator. The enhanced video exceeds most VHS recordings, and comes with regards to the quality of digital broadcasting without reference to the recording source. Sony added such additional features as digital tracking, which adjusts the tracking mechanically to smooth playback; commercial skip, which advances the tape 30 seconds when selected; and hi-fi stereo recording and MTS stereo playback. Individuals who currently own Sony Wega TVs or other Wega components will appreciate the VCR’s silver chassis, which is designed to complement the Wega line.
The VCR records in both SP and EP mode, even as playing back in SP, EP, and LP modes. The slower EP mode is nearly as sharp as the SP mode because of the VCR’s 19-micron heads, which reduce distortion and deliver a clear, digital-like picture. The SLV-N80 also employs plug-and-play setup, which mechanically tunes the channels and sets the clock so users can enjoy the device straight out of the box. Other features include an eight-event timer, auto head cleaning, a multilingual onscreen display, a parental lock feature, and front composite inputs for connecting to a camcorder or game system. Other inputs and outputs include coaxial connectors, an additional set of composite inputs, and a set of composite outputs. As well as, the SLV-N80 is Energy Star compliant.
