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.

I'm not sure what kind of noise your talking about, but my deck (a JVC)
is completeley solid in EP unless the tracking is mis-adjusted.  I can't
tell it from SP, no bars, fuzz, etc.. and little in slow or still.  I have
found that in EP tracking may need re-adjustment from tape to tape, even
if the tape has been recorded on the same deck.  However I've never had
any problem adjusting it to produce a rock-stable picture.
