Quality CD Recorder with Analog inputs,suggestion


I have an older Marantz CD Recorder which after making many copies is now on its last legs. I have been satisfied with the results and am now looking for a replacement machine.

I like recording live broadcasts of Artists on programs such as , Saturday Night Live, Leno, Letterman, other special broadcasts, etc.
Usually, I will copy these to DVD and then to CD.

I make CD compliations for the car and I also copy my LP's so I need a machine that can copy analog signal's to CD.

A dual well machine is not necessary.

Sound quality is important . I have seen reference to CDR recorders like Tascam RA DV 1000, Marantz CDR 631 and Denon 550 R.
Is there opinions of these units or any other suggestions?

Note: Home computer copying is not preferred due to placement of the equipment.

Joemt, Your posting explains the Alesis,
thanks!
Still wondering about the Tascam...
Well I have a Denon DN-C550R Professional CD Recorder and it makes superb quality copies. Best of all it has both RCA and Balanced inputs. While it is not the least expensive unit you can buy - you can be assured of many years of trouble-free CD recordings. By the way, we use Tayo Yuden CD media with this recorder and it makes great CDs.

The TASCAM puts you in the same boat I believe.
It makes DSDIFF files which can be read by DVD-ROM
drive ( as in your computer or Digital Audio Workstation).
You have to play those DVD+rw on this machine.

Here are two links to reviews. I know we all want to
be able to record our own DVD-Audio's, SACD's ... but
"they" ain't gonna make it easy for us.

Finally getting back to this thread. I just ordered a Tascam CDRW 900 SL new at a very good price on the internet.
Since I ordered it site unseen with very little info on the web...

Can anyone verify that this machine will:

1. Record with any type of blank CDR's and will not require Special Music CDR's ?

2. Will automatically insert tracks when copying CD's ?
