This is a video of a bit of a dream machine I fancy.

Any thoughts on this one from anybody that has operated one. Or, if by any chance someone had a nice one for sale in the UK... I might be interested.

Lovely professional machine by the looks of it Steven for those that have the room to accommodate one.

What a beautiful machine. It looks brand new. Was it up for sale or part of a business? I'd need a bigger bungalow to install it but boy, could I be tempted!!

Isn't it great how the bass, treble and volume controls are the same as the knobs on the GS1200?

Elmo also built a standalone pedestal for their smaller projectors. It's essentially a vertical long-play unit that can accomodate almost any standard 16mm projector on the market. There's a base that houses the motor, to which you can attach a large take-up reel, a tabletop style shelf for the projector and an extended feeder arm.
I rarely screen 16mm features these days so the unit is in storage but it works really well with my XP550.
