Any other Kramer units you own that you'd recommend?
I have a 4x4 component matrix by Kramer that I really like (Kramer VS-44HC) and a scaler with image rotation/curvature effect (VP-794), but that's originally a Calibre unit, just rebranded for Kramer.

For anything scaling related in the business area I guess Extron has surpassed Kramer a long time ago.

Are there any particular Kramer transcoder/converter models that you would recommend over other brands?

I wouldn't, because they're so hard to find. The FC-14 and 15 are both flawless though.

Randomly saw this sold listing earlier (was looking around for any potential recent FC-14 sold listings - I am in a really bad place, money-wise [thanks COVID] and have been contemplating selling mine) and was surprised! Had never heard of this one, I just keep stumbling across lesser-known units of theirs!

I wonder if the sync port being labeled "SYNC/CV" is implying that it'll take 'sync over composite video' (SCART standard) and sync on luma? That's what I would assume. I wish they had implemented those as acceptable syncs in the 14! An otherwise perfect device...
