Who makes a good CD recorder?

the denon in my system works quite well and should not cost much if you can find one.

if you will just be recording tracks from cd, the computer option is best. windows media player does it all.

i use my recorder mainly for recording from analog sources on my system, like vinyl these days since adding a pc based music server.

I have had a Philips 765 CDR since 1998 and it has served me well.Ditto the above posts on using the correct media,CD-R Music.If I were wanting to record CD's today,I would do what Mlsstl suggested and use a computer.Just a thought.

Here's the best stand-alone recorder I've heard: Reality Check CD Audiophile Grade Duplicator from George Louis; gsLouis@gslouis.com. It only copies at 4X
so they take about 12 - 15 minutes each. It somehow makes the copies sound better than the originals (bumps instead of pits, or some such thing -ask George). Of course you've heard about his UltraBit Platinum CD treatment that is Stereophile recommended as a best buy tweek (it is and not subtle). I own and use both but otherwise have no association with Mr. Louis. (But tell him Truman/Atlanta sent you..it couldn't hurt.) Good stuff. Enjoy.
