CD recorder?


Will be transferring over vinyl to cd's and was wondering which recorder will be the best for this?
I am considering the alesis masterlink 9600, is this a good choice?

I have a HHB-CDR-830 and I like it alot(no XLR inputs)
I have had her for approx 5yrs.and she's never failed.
We'll built, great recordings(LPs,cds ect.)HHB also has newer models.
I picked mine up at Long&Mcquade ltd.(musical instrument) store.We'll known thru out Canada
That's a nice looking unit, wish they had that when I bought mine a couple of years ago, Marantz Pro CDR510, which does a very good job....I haven't gotten into the intricacies of the unit, it does much, much more than I'll ever use it for. Probably what I like most about it besides its true recording capabilities (not adding anything) is it will add a 'track every minute', which is useful for off-air FM recording.

I saw one of these sell here a year ago for $100...must have been 'hot', as it was $700 new.

I recently bought a Sony RCD-W500C and while it does a fine job or recording analog to cd's, figuring out the process was another story.

I was lucky enough to get in contact with a member off of Audio Asylum that had the same model and he sent me an email with step by step instructions. I believe that I still have the instructions if you should get the Sony and cant figure it out.
I use a Burnit Plus CDR-830 by HHB. I like it and it is a pro machine with balanced ins and outs. It allows you to add text to your CDs also. It even makes a good player. The Alesis is probably good to.
I have had the Alesis for 3 years or so and absolutely LOVE it. The CD's I have burned from it are awesome. Very easy to use once you get the hang of things and very flexible. HIGHLY recommended. Mickey Fremer reviewed it a while ago and it has been in his reference system ever since. The CD playback from the unit is very good also, though I don't use it as my stand alone CD player.
