I recently read a report claiming that the quality of sound on a cd
could be vastly improved by rerecording the cd onto a black color cd
blank. The thesis, as I understood it, was that the black color is
easier for the laser to read than standard white or silver colors.

The report involved extensive comparison testing. Unfortunately, I've
lost the link to the report.

Has anyone had any experience with this or tested the proposition?

Second question, anybody have any experience with the Marantz CDR 300
portable cd recorder? I'm considering purchasing to replace my
mini-disc, which I use at rehearsals. I've heard the Marantz limiter
may reduce the sound quality noticeably. Mini-discs compress too much
it seems, but I like the idea of having a limiter if it really works.

Thanks for any help you can give.

You know I was thinking, what could be more black than a Black Sabbath
album on a black CD...and "the answer is none, none more black".
