Only the CP200 control unit, not the processor unit, or the MPU. It's unclear if it includes PSU.

He's selling the processor as well CP200 Processor

Question -- Has the 200 got SR cards standard?

Also, he's selling two mag units. Both are MPU-1's; what's the difference?

But he seems to be selling all the units as separate lots. He's also selling a SA4; I actually want one of those for something; If he will send to the UK I might even bid for it, I doubt if anybody else will want it.

The silver MPU-1 was the original one, used with the CP-100; the grey one was later, to match the style of the CP-200.

yes, lets buy a cp100 without a surround adapter! I think they would be lucky to get 99cents!

or 1/2 a 200! Why would you seperate the gear when you don't know what it does, yet its obvious that all the parts were needed to actually do the job, hence in the rack together.

They obviously haven't got a clue what they are selling. Is anywhere still using CP-100s? They never seem to have been very common, but if anybody is then it might be worth buying this for spare parts.

The CP-200 doesn't seem to be in very good condition, it's anybody's guess whether it still works, or what cards might be in it, but again, to somebody who is running one, it might be worth trying to buy it for spares if the price stays low.

They say they will ship overseas, and will accept Paypal, I think I'll wait until just before the auction ends, and see what happens. If somebody bids on the CP-100 and SA4 then I'll let them get it, but if there's no bid on the SA4, and it will otherwise probably go to the skip, then I'll put in a bid, maybe $20 or so. Of course, it would probably cost at least $50 to send it to me.

I'd quite like a CP-200 to play with, but even if the price was low the cost of sending it 'home' (all of the Dolby cinema stuff was built in the UK in those days) would be expensive.

I'm also looking for four Cat. 92-3 or 92-4 mag pre-amp cards, but I've no way of knowing if the MPUs they are selling even have any cards in them. In the case of the SA4, I don't want the card, just the case, to mount a different decoder in.

Several of the now-defunct single-screen theatres in San Francisco were using CP100s at the time they closed in the mid and late 90's.

I'm sure he didn't intend you to read it as "Did any theaters that closed quite a while ago ever use them?"

An old Goldberg rewinder for over three grand? What are they smoking?

Crap, there's probably a hundred of those stashed in places around here. I might sell them and buy a new house next week.

ZOMG!!1111

REEFER MADNESS Old 35mm movie film feature B&W Cult

Funny, the soundtrack goes from density to area and back again, is this mismatching reels, or are my suspicions founded? starting price is a little TGTBT as well.

I think I smell a rat, but I have been wrong before. A lot of photos, I really don't know what to make of it, ideas?

This guy sells a lot of film, so it could be legit.

RE Reefer Madness, AKA Tell your children, Looks like the real thing. I had a 16mm copy for many years.

Originally made as "Tell Your Children" for school education. It was later re-released in the 1960s as the Reefer Madness where it achieved cult status!(that should explain the different soundtrack)

One very funny film that trys far to hard to convince us that smoking dope is a danger because evil people can mix it in a regular cigarette and turn you into an addict on the spot.

Being a Reefer Addict will turn you into a hyperactive mess that cannot control oneself, nor ones car (as you will definitly run some one down as you drive, because you are a giggling mess!!!). Reefer addicts are easy to pick as they have very dark circles under their eyes and move/ dance/ drive so fast and irratically they are a danger to all!

An entertaining film that does not let facts get in the way and rules by fear! So dated you will laugh your tits off!

I assumed it's cult status would assure any extant 35mm copies would all be securely locked in collectors hands, and not on eBay with no reserve. I eagerly await the selling price.

I once paired REEFER MADNESS and NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD double feature; we needed lawn bags to carry out the money -- both in the PUBLIC DOMAIN (you remember the Public Domain concept...that quaint old idea that the studios have squished like a bug). Nobody got any percentage whatsoever. There was so much pot being smoked in the theatre you could get high just watching the movies (this was in the late 70s, it was 90% college students -- now there is no smoking of anything anywhere in the entire theatre complex).

Actually it was a kind of faux triple bill --we ran REEFER, NOTLD, followed by REEFER again. By the time REEFER number 2 rolled around, that audience was ripped.....people were laughing so hard we were afraid we surely would need the vomit crew to come in when we closed, but nothing that bad happened, just a higher number of spilled drinks and quit a few roaches. Ran two shows -- got about 2000 per show -- damn how I loved those days, BV (Before Video). We could routinely get numbers that even the muliplexes opening blockbusters today would kill for. 4000 in one night.....PIRATES eat your heart out.

So you understand when I say, I have a special affection for that ridiculous and hystrical (even when you're not high) little PD film! I just can't wait for some studio to figure out a way to claim it belongs to them and so make it loose PD status. [Mad]
