Sony SLV-N55 4-Head Hi-Fi VCR
Don't buy
I purchased this Sony VCR at a Target, thinking you can rely on Sony, well I was wrong.  It did not record a very good quality picture from my TV (cable).  I tried switching tapes, and recorded in both EP and SP, but there was always some kind of disturbance seemingly from one particular point in the reel/head/whatever. It occurred regularly in playback, about every few seconds at the beginning of the tape, and then occurring in shorter intervals toward the end of the tape.  Oh, and I used new Sony tapes, which did fine on my older Sony VCR...go figure, but don't buy it.
