I know there are many posts on the subject, and I have read many (if not all) of them. I may be jumping the gun a little fast, but I am having a lot of fun =) I am interested in many films that were produced overseas, and may want to re-record some of the soundtracks. I understand this may require me to have a GS1200 & a sync box (from what I can tell Pedro seems to be the popular box, with the P1008GS model being the one that I would need in the states).
Therefore, I am considering selling my two projectors (ST1200, Euming 807D) and a camera I had converted for Color Infrared ( Canon 40D ), in order to have some funds to put towards an upgrade. Before I start selling my stuff it would be good to have a general idea at what my costs may be. I didn't post in the Wanted section so I can make sure I have the appropriate funds to buy when the time is right. So, I have two questions.
(1) I have seen the GS1200 sell from $500 all the way to 3,500 Euro (here on the forum!). The latter looked much more beautiful, but both machines working well. Perhaps the latter had some special work done to it, but how much can I expect to spend on a fair condition GS1200? I assume either model will allow me to use a sync box to rerecord audio. Correct me If I am wrong.
(2) IF someone were willing to sell a sync box (I understand the task may be much more difficult than I hope) how much could I expect to pay? From my understand they cost somewhere in the vicinity of ~$600 when they were first released. There's no telling whether the price of a used one is more or less expensive now.
Thank you!
