My CD-R mixdown deck just died. I tried to replace it with the Tascam
CD-RW2000 that Tascam has just reintroduced, but no one has one of these in
stock.

So, gritting my teeth I've ordered the new Tascam DV-RA1000, the high
definition DVD/CD recorder that Tascam obviously hopes will be the eventual
replacement for the CD-RW2000 and the center of their new high definition
line.

I'll just use the think to make red book CD-R recordings, but was wondering
what experience, if any, people have with this gadget. Anyone have a
comment?

For now I'm hanging onto my CD-RW402 playback/dup deck although from the
design, Tascam obviously plans to push its new half height CD Pro players as
a replacement for it.
