Denon CDR-W1500 2-Disc CD Recorder

Pros: Audio quality nearly on par with original prerecorded CDs.

Cons: Cumbersome, plodding user interface that's surrenders much to better-designed computer-based burning software.

The Bottom Line: For CD recording, no computer without a professional/studio grade audio processor can compare.

Review: The number 1500 holds a hallowed place among the audio products in Denon’s history. Their early audiophile CD player, the DCD-1500 from the early 1980s, was often considered THE first CD player from any manufacturer that was good enough to...

Pros: Great sound quality. Makes bit-for-bit copies of CDs and great conversions of LPs.

Cons: Requires CD-Audio disks and uses DCMS.

The Bottom Line: Highly recommended, especially for those who want to convert LPs to CD.

Pros: excellent sound on copied CDs

Cons: It takes some practice and trial & error to master all of the features.

Review: I have had this CD recorder for only a couple of weeks, so I'm still getting used to its operation. The important thing is that the sound of the recorded CDs is indistinguishable from that of the originals. However, I still need to become more aware of ...

Pros: Nicely built player with good sound/recording.

Cons: No support/service from Denon in large city (San Diego).
