Just curious as to whether the new Sony drives are becoming readily available and if any problems have been encountered? Also saw an ad recently for a Mirror CD-R and it said it was a Sony mechanism. Wonder if this is the new one? Any info? Reg Harris

So far my testing on the new Sony 920 has produced excellent results. My testing includes writing the CD-R to capacity and then getting all 9 error rates and analog signals off the discs as the analyzer reads the pits. It's a pretty slick unit.

I will second your opinion on the new Sony… Like it. I still like the Philips and its siblings better because of the big cache but so far it seems to be a good recorder. The nice thing is that it is so cheap… Georges CD Archive, Inc. http://www.cdarchive.com

Georges, Have to say that I haven't used the Sony — Scott Bracken is the person who posted that message. We've straightened out the ID names now, but for a day or so the account still had my name on it from ages ago, and he didn't realize it. Sorry for the confusion. Kathy The One-Off CD Shops

Either way, it's nice to hear. Reg Harris
