Sometimes, we just can’t let go – original eight track records, vintage clothes, hard-to-find comic books, first edition volumes… even with the digital age, some people still prefer to rock on with their analogs.
If you (or your father) are like this, JVC hears you. The company recently announced that it has released two new video recorders capable of handling VHS, DVD, and even HDD recording.
Intuitively, the DR-HX500 has a 500GB hard drive while the DR-HX250 has half that capacity (250GB). That’s where the difference ends. Both devices boast of a built-in analog/digital TV tuner, an HDMI socket, a VHS player, and a DVD burner/player. Both are capable of handling DTS and Dolby Digital formats.
Parents can now relive their old classics while their children indulge in the latest Hollywood releases. Recorded clips from TV, such as American Idol episodes, can either be stored on the hard drive or burned on DVD’s.
The HX500 can go for as much as $906 while the HX250 will post a $715 tag.
