CD-R discs for music

Can anyone answer how BLACK CD's are burned? Seems that a laser's beam wouldn't be reflected/absorbed correctly on a black colored disc.

I believe the Yamaha CDR-HD1500 is a SCMS based recording unit, not a PRO based unit. As you know you have to use CD-R or CD-RW (audio disc) for recording.

I believe the "Black CDR from Memorex" will only record in Pro based units or computers.

Taiyo Yuden (audio) made in Japan, is a great disc. Look for the made in Japan on the packaging. Data side is blue/green in color.

Thanks for all the help. Very much appreciated! Will try
the Mitsui silver. Steve

Jea48, where do you get Taiyo Yuden? I'd like to give them a try.
I burned the black Momorex on my Marantz CDR500 and hated it. Muddy, incoherent, fuzzy sound. YMMV.
I currently use Sony CDR Audio color was a dark blue/green now a light blue/green. No more coasters like 1 out of 5 Mitsui golds I used to use.

CDC,

This page will get you to both the TY and the Mitsui:
