AA Capitole MKII/ CD Burner to use with it

I'm looking for a CD recorder that records to the Red Book standard. I had a very nice Marantz burner, but the Capitole could not read the CD-R's recorded on it.

Would any Capitole MKII owners comment on what model/manufacturer they have where they are having success with the AA Capitole. Thanks in advance for your help.

(By the way, my 20 year old Nak CD Player 1 will play them and my Sony SACD player will play them, but the Cap won't.)

Yes, I do run it direct. My CD-Rs are pretty cheap from Sony and Promedia, I burn it at 4x, and 16x on my Dell Computer and they all play find. Will burn-in change the sound of the player dramaticly? Right now am at around 20 hrs.

Gerryn, my Capitole MK II reads Maxell 80m CDRs without any problem.

Aron, I agree with you that the volume level has to be raised substantially to be able to listen! Maybe I need more efficient speakers.

Twopippis, do you know why the need for P3 over P2 (if the P2 ever existed?).

I do not know what Sattothestars means by not the Marantz. My Marantz has always played everything including CDRs, no exceptions. Bad rap!

I think I might know why some of the players are not playing the CD-Rs. You have to wait for the player to load and onces it show the total track time on the display then press play. If you put in a CD-R and press play right away it show a error messages, but if you wait till it shows the total disc time on the front, then press play it should be fine. At least that's how mine is. Hope I helped.

TPG.Obviously you do not read things correctly.It is not the Marantz.in other words there is absolutley nothing wrong with it.It is the type of cdrs that are being played on the Captiole.Strnge how you are the only one to totaly misconstrue that statement.
