I just purchased the Zenith top of the line VHS HiFi system, and am 
quite impressed. The mechinisim is made by JVC and value added at Zenith
and somehow the finished product is better than the JVC equivalent. Still
It only records in SP or EP (2 or 6Hr) but plays all of the speeds, and in
SP the effects are like watching a film editor machine. No bars, No fuzz,
and No distortion. In EP there are some patches of static but still better
than the closest top of the line non HiFi machine. My only complaint is
that it only comes with the Zenith Wonder TV remote control. While if
I had a zenith TV (not as nice as the 'ol Trinitron) it would be nice,
since I don't I end up with several non functional and needless buttons.
Why don't we force manufactures to develop the Infrared Remote Control
Standard and give up the multiple remote game? Anyway, I highly recommend
it and when you get it from Nationwide in Fla ($815) it is not to much
more than a regular one from <fill in local stereo/video disounter here>.
