Recording vinyl woes


Hello all,

I have a Marantz DR17 and would like to record some of my vinyl. Problem is, its been ten years and I no longer have any of the TDK blanks I used to use that worked well. I have Verbatim and Staples discs now, but they will not work in the recorder, only in my CD drive.

Anyone here also using a standalone CD recorder ( preferably Marantz or Phillips ) that could tell me what CDR works in their recorder.

Thanks,                         Crazy Bill

I’d say Ebay is your friend. I have bought countless brand new blank cassette tapes, cd-r’s, blank mini disc’s, you name it. All still factory sealed and In good usable/functioning shape. I do prefer to put my vinyl on high quality cassette tapes, as it retains its analog qualities. However, I can see a reason to use a cd-r if that is all you have and want to play it in a digital device etc...
