Burnin CDs? Sound loss/degration question

Jond, I've just gone to the terrapin site and am thinking about buying a couple of spindles of 100 Mitsui discs for use with my Tascam CDR-W 2000. Any noticable sonic differences between the silver ($52) versus gold ($80) discs?

Yes the copies are very close to orginal, i believe both are true A) can't tell the difference and B) a slight loss in quality. IOW there must be some quality loss, but not easy to detect. I don't like these recorders, will put a big strain on Tower and many classical labels and orchestras to turn a decent profit. Especially the orchestra members. A 4 or 5 member Rock band splits the profits much better than a 75 member orchestra. Any thoughts here??

Wmcmanus,
I haven't tried the gold but I've had excellent results with the silver. Good sound quality and a failure rate of zero. Because I have a Philips CDR880 which only uses consumer grade discs, I haven't tried regular data grade, but I'm sure the results would be fine.

I echo the comments on the Marantz unit. I have the 6060 model and burned Patrica Barber's Modern Cool to test copy quality and no difference to my ears or friend's ears. I have very revealing system that would detect differences.

Thanks, Jond. I'll try both and report any differences that I'm able to hear. What else is an audio nut to do?
