Panasonic PV-V4521 4-Head Hi-Fi Stereo VCR
Good VCR for the price.
Easy to connect and the stereo sound is great!  The picture is clear, too.  Slow motion and still are very, very clear.  You can even record SAP if you speak Spanish and the TV show you're watching supports it.  The only problem I've found is that sometimes, with older tapes, when you record a show you may get a little crackling in the sound.  I suspect this is because the VCR's HI-FI sound is very sensitive.  If you use a good brand of tape, like TDK and Maxell, you can limit this problem.  Definately worth the money, especially for a stereo VCR.
