Hi All,

which one is the better sound projector? The bauer T600 or Braun visacustic 1000?

Thanks4

Hi Viktor,
From my personal experience the T600 is better than visacustic 1000.
Probably not all people here will agree, but again, I own both and for me the Bauer suffers of less problems than Braun.
Furthemore the T600 is Stereo while the visa 1000 is duoplay only...

Bye
Flavio

Why not include the outstanding Visacustic 2000 - a perfect example of a company tweaking an existing model (1000) based on the comments from real film people instead of company accountants

Hi Viktor,

not sure to have understood your question...
Are you asking if there is the possibility that the film doesn't touch the sound head if it is a mute film in the T600?
If this, the answer is no.
I'm not even sure if the Visacustic will prevent this when used in the mute position of the main knob...
