Hi Ejlif; I'm glad you posted this question as I've been copying CDs with a Pioneer W739 CD-R and have observed the same thing you did. The CD-Rs are more "crisp, clean, and live", and thus more involving, but notably they are not brighter, at least not in a bad way. Bmpnyc explained that it may be a slight roll off of bass during recording, thus empasizing the mids and highs, But its been my experience that bass is also more articulate. The W739 is only $725. list, or $600. actual-- I think the Tascam is more expensive. Is it a pro model? I like CD-Rs. Craig.
CDRs sound better than original!!!
I have been comparing the sound of CDRs recorded with a Tascam CDRW 5000 and the original. The results are that the CDR always sounds better, sometimes it's a huge diffrence. I have not heard this mentioned before. I did the comparison originally expecting to be highly dissapointed with the copy. I bet if some of you serious audiophiles heard this you would be recording your library on CDR. Has anyone had any similar experiences with CDR?
