MiniDisc player/recorder

Post by Kicker774 »

Any audiophiles use minidiscs at all?

A neighbor is selling a CD -> MD recorder on the cheap and figured I'd pass it along if anyone was interested.

I used to use them for recording concerts, but solid state recorders have taken over, and for good reason.

Full-size decks (perhaps what your neighbor has?) are probably more reliable than portable minidisc recorders. And if it has a digital (coaxial or optical) output, it may be useful for transferring old minidisc recordings to computer. But all my old recordings have already been transferred.
