I am getting ready to convert my vision 3 to 9 inch tubes and was wondering if anyone had a vision 1 case they weren't useing

Mine is the vision 3 case in matte black but if the case is in a different color I don't mind

I think only the front bezel around the tubes was different.

There were different versions of the case. Post a picture of yours.

Here is the pic of mine

Looks almost like a e home case painted black but the vidikron logo is on the remotes and in the info screen

Its a vision 3 but like I said its case doesn't match the brochure for the vision 3

Also the sticker by the power inlet is missing(not sure if it was removed when it was made or what)

That's an Electrohome case, not a Vision 3 Case. The prior owner probably sold off the Vision 3 case separately.

That sucks why would someone want to keep the set and sell the case?

Also which case would be best the vision 3 or vision 1 case??

Or the previous owner got the Secret service menu code and changed the info to read Vision 3.

I had a PJ that said Reference 8 but it was not.

I think it was the other way around as I found out about the secret service menu but the code is not the same as the other service menus in the set

Also the remotes have the vidikron logo so most likely someone bought the set for the case and turned around and sold the chassis

How do I change the display menu lettering from green to white or is that because its showing as a vidikron??

I thought something was fishy about the case not matching the brochures for either vision set

Oh, I forgot some of the lower end models like the Vision 2 and 3 had normal E home cases. So nothing unusual you have.

I seen in a different thread (on this forum)that some of the earlier vidikron sets had e home cases last time I inspected the set I seen a date stamp in late 98 but the boards in the set have newer date stamps is it possible mine is a earlier model?

If yes I would most likely be looking for one of the pinaferia designed cases after I do the tube swap(upgrading to 9inch tubes)
I wonder if curt has one
