    Barco 808 Problem

    I've got a Barco Graphics 808 which doesn't turn on. It had been working fine for the past year, but when I went to turn it on the other day - *nothing*... Typically when I turn it on, I hear the fan, the ultra-high-frequency sound of the CRT tubes, and it makes a few crackling sounds as it...

    Component Output to RBGHV

    Component Output to RBGHV

    Greetings all HTF'ers! I'm quite new to home theater, and due to some amazing luck, I got, for free, a Barco Graphics 808 CRT projector, and decided to set up a home theater. (My family is really enjoying it!) I've got the Barco, a cheap Koss DVD/receiver/HT sound system, and a 10' Dacor...
