Title: New deck advice??
Post by: Gary Hull on July 20, 2003, 05:07:43 PM

I have been recording with 2 Sharp Minidiscs for the last couple of years, and one of the just crapped out on me and wont record anymore.  I figured I may take this as a chance to upgrade out of the MD realm.  I was considering the JB3 but I have seen some controversy over the quality of the recordings and the power issues.  I figured if I was going to have to spend the money, I might as well go compressionless.

Are there any other cheaper alternatives?
