This one's a little bit different insofar as we're looking at two Sony SLC9 Betamax machines. One is a black SLC9E and the other is a silver SLC9UB.

The DC-DC review is coming up in the next week or so, so keep an eye out for that.

The silver C9 will be fully resurrected and we'll go through some of that process in part 2

Really hope you liked this one - I've done it in a shorter format cutting out commonly shown elements. It would be fantastic to get alike if you liked the video and a subscribe to the channel if you love these machines. 😊
