I like the way Sony RCDW500C was built with ease of use.Good headroom,works well with 20 bit dat recorders, great as din mix if you know what your doing. NOT BAD for mastering cd after the the final mix useing mastering tools of courseis completed. All & All this is a worth while tool to have.

Simple and Convenient

As a music freak and electronic lover, I was very pleased with the quality of the merchandise I received. Although I have not used the recorder much do to my busy schedule, I'm very satisfied with the results I've gotten the few times that I have used it. This recorder has proved to be very convenient, Compared to the others I've used in the past. It's very easy to use and time consuming, which is a plus this days. I'm exited about the unit and can't wait to buy some time and start making CDs...In addition, I have to complement Vanns.com for the shipping of the merchandise since the delivery was done in such a timely and secure fashion that It made me consider ordering other electronic devices in the near future.

This cd recorder-player is fairly easy to use once you get past the owners manual. This is my first experience recording cd's. I have recorded cassette's in years past but this is a much easier task. I wasn't sure if I would be able to record from my 30 year old Bang & Olufsen Beogram 1900 turntable but I had absolutely no problem. I bought this Sony mainly to record my vast collection of vinyl records so I could be able to listen to hard to find music again. Although I have only recorded a few albums so far,I feel this machine will serve me very well. I purchased it online from Vann's and received it quicker than I thought I would. I will definitely make more purchases from this company and would recommend them to anyone else interested in getting a good buy. The free shipping and no sales tax was a huge incentive in ordering this product. I saved enough to buy at least 60 blank music cd-r's with jewel cases.

This unit works great for recording off my digital

multi track recorder using the optical input with exceptional sound quality & ease of use. Also the analog input feature saves my old tapes & records onto CD for quality recording using the SBM feature. Also use the unit for live recording using the analog input. This unit is packed with faetures & easy to use. Also saved $50 over other retailers.

Absolutely a great product. Brand new out of the box, and not only was it exactly as both advertised but also as explained by your wonderful support personnel. It does what you promised. It's easy to learn to use. Fabulous quality reporductions of my live radio program broadcasts.

I simply input a live program feed of my program, finalize it, then burn a copy to give to my on-air guests within minutes of the program's completion.

Best of all, your price was $50.00 below the best price on eBay, and at least that amount below anywhere else I was able to find the product.

Thanks for exceeding epectations in every area.

I find that the Sony RCD-W500C does exactly what I

needed, and almost everything I want. The manual

isn't the best, but read through it and then just

try things out. I record on this unit, and then

use PC software to edit the audio and tracks as

needed. I find that the front panel markings aren't

the easiest to read just add extra light, and I

wish it had a built-in timer to start recordings

add a super-remote?. My first attempt at

recording was a keeper.

It's a good value.

Very fine piece of equipment for the money. Had a bit of trouble with B deck but that was quickly taken care of. Great for analog to Digital recording, i.e. recording vinyl onto CD. Instructions are as comprehensive and understandable as possible. However, if you are at an idiot's level concerning home electronics, you may require a little assistance from someone who is more knowledgeable. DO NOT use to copy DAT onto CD this is the problem of the DAT unit and the internal electronics associated with it, not the CD recorder. Dubbing CD's is a cinch. Sony makes a quality consumer level unit. Will purchase Sony equipment again.

I own a Sony RCD-W50CW10. It will be the last sony product I'll ever buy. The instructions are poorly written, and recording is nothing short of a trial by fire.

I am a musician and I record my own music for my students. For many years this meant using a simple cassette player recorder. About 10 yrs. ago I purchased a Sony dat deck to record my master tape. A yr. ago I purchased the Sony CD recorder. I recorded my music onto the dat deck. I then tried to use the optical 'out' into the optical 'in' on the CD recorder. This was especially convenient since all the track nos. were stored on the dat deck. When I tried to record the CD recorder would not allow me to do so. The code said that I was violating copyright rules! This was my own music! I then took a copyrighted CD, inserted it in deck A and easily recorded it in deck B. No problem! But I couldn't do my own music! I then had to use the analog connection to record. This presented a lot of tracking problems. The instructions were not clear on this issue.

After recording analog on deck B, I then placed it in deck A to dub a copy. I could do so but only in 'real time', the high speed dub would not work!

The problems I'm descrbing is only the tip of the iceberg. Consumer help was... well... less than helpful.

By the way, in less than a year, the recording deck B broke, it will not 'read' a blank CD.

I'll never purchase a Sony product again.
