 Post subject: Using a Scaler
PostPosted: 09 Dec 2013, 03:25

I use a scaler, specifically a DVDO iScan HD+ to connect my CLD-99 to a modern plasma tv. I'm quite happy with the results. I was inspired to do so by an article I read. When I decided to get serious about picture quality, I started doing a lot of research and felt that was the best move. Am I in the minority? Using a scaler I mean? I realize a high end Sony Trinitron is probably more ideal, but the clock is ticking on those. I actually purchased a used Sony KV-32HS500 a few years back. It was great...for about 3 months. Then it stopped powering on. It also weighed about 150 lbs. Just thought I'd throw that out there.

Also, if anyone is interested, I have included a link to that article below:

i'm going to use a scaler IF i need one once my CRT dies.
but then again i'm only going for a max size of around 32-36 inches, can't handle larger since my room is too small for anything larger.
plus i have a projector if i need to go big :D

I am using pms crystalio II vps-3800. Also using algolith mosquito hdmi in conjunction with it for noise reduction.

I have used entech cvsi-1, faroudja nrs, dvdo iscan vp30 with abt102 card, crystalio II vps-3300, lumagen radiance xd in the past.

Lumagen has the best cms hands down. Crystalio II is the best vp all around for laserdisc. Faroudja nrs has the best noise reduction for laserdisc (same genesis fli2310 chip exist in crystalio II). Dvdo units have the best sd deinterlacing (faroudja is a close second) but everything else lacked for laserdisc.
