CD Recorder that has decent sound?

I have a Pioneer W739 ($600. actual retail) that makes excellent copies and is very convenient and versatile to use. But, you have to use the consumer audio CDs which are a little more expensive. Ramstl and others would recommend the more pro oriented recorders (more expensive, but probably better built) that can use the cheaper computer CD blanks, and I respect that approach. If your primary use is copying LPs to CDs, you would probably want the machine that has the "best" analog to digital converter available. I don't know which that would be, but presumably the more expensive pro recorders would have better AD conversion. Ramstl, are you out there? Craig.

Musikdoc, I was fishin' for the same info, (strength of analogue to digital recording,) and emailed Tascam, (one of the "pro" recorders Craig mentioned above,) but did NOT get an answer from them. It has only been a month, maybe they will get back to me yet. [:(] Also, I saw the Pioneer W739 that serves Craig so well in a Best Buy flier for $399 last weekend. Good luck, Charlie.

I purchased a Fostex CR300 for $650 on line. The pro model can handle a number of different inputs. Very faithful reproduction, plus you don't have to buy the music CDRs, so if you burn enough you'll be ahead with a pro-model recorder in the long run.
