Well, I just returned from 11 days in China recording
Beethoven, Vaughan-Williams, Wagner, Bizet, Mozart, and
other oldies with a Marantz PMD670 with a 1 Gb CF chip.

Sounds absolutely fine ...

Check out the PMD670. For about $800 (($700 for the machine
plus $100 for the chip (actually $89 at Fry's with a $20
rebate))), you get a nice, usable solution if your problem
is one that it will solve.

We posted a comparison of the Marantz PMD670, Fostex FR-2 and our
PDAudio system on our Web site:
