Advice on CD-R purchase
I am ready to take the plunge into the wonderful world of CD burning. I have been researching the different models and their pro's and con's. I think I have settled on an HHB CDR-850 or a Fostex CR-300. Has anybody purchased one of these units? I am looking to get a good deal on a new one (I know-who isn't) or even a used one in good condition. Ebay is out of the question--the bids go way higher than most dealers will sell for. Can anybody recommend a dealer or know of a used pro audio classified site. Thanks for any help.
