(esp. VCR) Message-ID: <671@mtung.UUCP> Date: Tue, 11-Feb-86 12:47:12 EST Article-I.D.: mtung.671 Posted: Tue Feb 11 12:47:12 1986 Date-Received: Thu, 13-Feb-86 01:06:01 EST Distribution: net Organization: AT&T ISL Holmdel NJ USA Lines: 17 Xref: watmath net.video:2013 net.audio:7592 Has anyone on the net had experience ordering stuff from an outfit called DAK? They advertise in a lot of magazines, usually for very high-tech gadgets and home entertainment stuff. Often their bargains involve you having to order some of their own brand cassette tapes, which they claim are top of the line (i.e. as good as Maxell, TDK). Has anyone dealt with them? Any experiences-- good, bad, ugly, or indifferent? I recently got their catalog, and a $400 VHS Hi-Fi VCR (stereo) caught my eye. It's made by Emerson (or rather, by Mitsubishi for Emerson, according to a list posted a while back). Anyone know anything about it? And while we're at it, has anyone tried DAK cassettes? -- Paul Fox, AT&T Information Systems, Holmdel NJ. [ihnp4|vax135]!mtung!pgf (201)834-3740
