I'm looking for a reliable, easy to use, cd recorder. Cost not much of an issue (splitting cost with a friend). I've tried a TEAC but forgot the model # but it was problematic and I returned it. I would like a dual well and I've researched a Marantz but would like one or two more suggestions.

For this kind of money I know a better amp with much more power and speed can be had.While classic McIntosh holds a price, it is functionaly not up to modern fast, less distortion ckts, with a lot more power...this is a lot of money for a very small amp..basically a sound producer, not reproducer. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...p;rd=1&rd=1

I was thinking about getting an older accuphase cd player and use it for a DAC would this work if I got an inexpensive SACD player, best of both worlds?

Thanks
Mark
