unscrambles digitally coded audio discs that have a dynamic range over
90 dB and other super-fidelity specifications. At this writing, JVC
has not revealed video software sources needed to sell its system
successfully. Europe's Thorn-EMI Ltd., though, has agreed to produce
both players and software.

Subject: VP1000 weak audio output
Date: Mon, 13 Jan 1997 04:04:30 GMT
My brother just bought a Zenith VP1000 and about 20
discs at a flea market. The player works okay, but the
sound output is very low. He says he really has to
crank up the volume on his TV.
The SGT100 I bought a while back is even worse, though
it has a bad picture to boot. Still, I wonder if its
inherent in the CED format that the audio is weak, or
is it indicative of a problem with our players?
Alas, Tom, there was no manual with the VP1000.

Fine, but how can that be done at a store quickly? What's the best
and quickest technique for opening the caddy?
