Good evening / Morning Guys,
Reading anonyme-x22 intro and indepth analysis, His viewpoint based on his findings, one can only admire his enthusiasm, his passion and appreciate of where he is coming from.
Acuozzo's equally impressive replies and by all accounts his collection, is also impressive, I can sincerely appreciate one and both of your frustrations, however somewhere in the middle is a common ground and that is both of your appreciation of the Laserdisc Format.
The language barrier was evident but one only mentions this as an observation and not to criticize here.
In conclusion I would like to commend you both for your efforts here, for you have no doubt reached out to those who are reading and not posting....... I find it refreshing that you have both thrashed out on the many technical details, and you have both brought out something quite unique to this forum............... Just look at the Views of this post!
If they reinvented the LD format then I know as well as a number of other members here, that we would be united with excitement at the prospect...........
My personal drive is to have ownership of an HLD X0 as a mark of my eternal hope....... I have enough LD players in my collection and have fought hard to own these........
What I am trying to say here is that we would have loved this format you go to the next level, and Pioneer were ready for such a step, it's such a damn shame that market forces chose to go for the smaller disc's, and so reduce the tangible quality that we all hold dear in our hands...............
I used to work up to 120hrs per week for the eternal hope of ownership.
The quirks and oddities of this format are the driving force of our enthusiasm for all things LD and, may that continue for many years to come.
I commend you both and wish you well, lets be fair to one and all, the activity on this forum of late has been a little quiet, and I genuinely hope & believe that you have reignited the flame of enthusiasm here.
In closing I would like to mention a handsome thank you for both of your contributions.
Kindest Regards to you Both and please shake hands in warmth on a united front.
Deepest respects and peace to, and between both of you.
P.S. Thank you both for being members here.......
