January 2002 was a month for Birthdays !
Not only did Black Box
Video celebrate its 10th Birthday,
but Karen celebrated her
(rather special) Birthday in sunny St Lucia
(having been whisked away
to the Caribbean by her lovely, romantic hubby!)

At Black Box Video our philosophy, as always, is to
bring you innovative audio products of high quality which are
unavailable elsewhere.
|
|
Using only the finest
components, we hand build every item individually. And they are
made to last. We want you to come back again and buy some more!
|
|
We believe we offer a superb
"customer service". Phone us and you won't have to fight
your way through endless, computerised menus. Phone Black Box
Video and you can speak directly to a human! But more importantly,
that human is the man who designs it, the man who builds it, and the man
who fixes it!
|
|
That's Jim McAlister - and remember the old saying
"Jim will fix it"!

Before setting up Black Box
Video ten years ago, Jim had 30 years experience as a Sound Engineer for
the BBC. During his BBC career he pioneered stereo recording on
video (yes, that's going back a bit!). Consequently, his knowledge
and experience is broad and deep. So, you see, he does know what
he's talking about if you phone him and understands the importance of
practical, robust equipment that you can operate with gloved hands.

Creating this web site has been
a whole new learning experience for me - Karen - and I am
quite pleased with myself. I still have a lot to learn
and am always looking for tweaks and refinements to improve it, but here
you can see photographs of all our products as well as give you
dimensions and technical specifications. Perhaps more importantly
- we also give you the prices!
Starting now you can read and print the Instructions for Use for
all Black Box Video units, so you can see exactly how easy everything
is to use before you place your order. Get to the Instructions
you want either via the Technical
page, or from the product page.
Why not save our
URL into your Favorites so you can come back to us again quickly -
alternatively, just enter the keyword "blackboxvideo"
(without bothering with the w's or .com) and you will come to us
immediately.

We have made a conscious decision not to
include a purchasing facility on this web site for the time being.
It is our experience that the majority of our clients prefer to discuss
their requirements in some detail before placing their order, and we
like to maintain a closer relationship with clients by talking with
them. |
|
As before, though, do phone or
E-mail us for one of our full colour catalogues by snail mail.
