Harman Kardon CDR 2 CD Player/Recorder Review

First of all, with Harmon/Kardon how can you go wrong! When I first pulled this sturdy unit out of the box, plugged it in, and watched as the CDR-2's classy display light up I knew I had purchased a beautiful,higher-end piece of equipment!The users-manual is easy to read andunderstand, with several different recording scenarios explained.For myfirst recording I copied an entire CD in DIGITAL, using the 2X DUB feature. The CDR-2 performed flawlessly and made a perfect copy, keeping in mindthat the CD I copied was somewhat new and scratch/dirt free.I have yet toexplore it's other features, such as it's DUAL-PLAY mode; playing 2 CD'ssimultaneously, which will be helpful to me as a recording musician.Ithas many options for recording outside sources digitally (and analog) withit's COAXIAL and OPTICAL in/out ports. I've purchased and returned a"lower-end" recorder before and was extremely disappointed.TheHarmon/Kardon CDR-2 is one solid piece of technology in my book.

Tascam CDA500 CD Player & Cassette Recorder Review

I have purchased and installed 3 of these units.Two in church sound systems and one in my home.All of the units have had problems reading certain CDs.I get "no disk" errors or it takes a very long time to read the CD, both of which are unacceptable in a unit of this price. These CDs have been "brand new out of the box" and CDRs I've recorded.Sometimes they read sometimes they don't.I can not recommend this unit.
