Page 1 of Pacific 750

Well boys & girls after hearing alot of mixed reviews about this machine, I trotted down to my local Sainsburys to see if I could get my hands on one of there budget machines, low and behold - out of stock, so next stop was ASDA to get a Pacific, I was a little duvious handing over my £90 after hearing the reviews.

Unpacked it set it up, put Jay & Silent Bob Strike back in, was a little jerky to begin, changed Pal to NTSC and hey PRESTO, superb sound and a decent picture for £90, not as good picture as my sony player but then there is a price difference of £200 init.

So instead of forking out then £126 Techtronics where gonna charge me to have a mod chip in my Sony, not only have I saved £36 and not invalidated my warranty, I also have a machine downstairs now as well.

What i cant understand is why there is people moaning about no colour picture, real jerky pic and freezing up, as i`m no expert and managed to set it up and watch 4, region 1 dvd`s so far with no problems???????

cheers

You Might find mate that it`ll be fine for a while and then it will have "slight" lip sync problems and it will just get progressivly worse. I work for ASDA and off the record i wouldn`t reccomend anyone to buy one. Just be glad they offer a 3 year gurantee

My mates takes ages to reconise VCD`s! Have you got the Macro hack?
