Advantages: say goodbye to all those old vinyls

Disadvantages: none

It is time to wave a fond farewell to the
audio tape recorder.New technology has caught
up with the world of home taping.

Welcome to the Philips CDR570.A sleek,robust
and compact portable cdr,that's compact disc
recorder to you and I,and this baby does
everything!

At first glance you think "how am I ever going to fathom this out".The manuel is huge.
It's only after you realise that the instructions are printed in various languages
that the tension eases,not for long though.
There are so many leads,you feel like an
Italian ploughing into his dinner...spaghetti
everywhere!

Finally,it all comes together,you flick the
switch,action.Now at last you can get out
your massive collection of old 45's and
deleted albums and place them on cd.Better
still you can compile your all time
favourite collection.Even better though is
placing all those mp3 files that are jamming
up your PC on to disc.


Its actually easy to use.There are
three different recording modes,manual (you
hit the red button),album (this recordes a
whole LP) and Track (which,surprise,surprise
records one album track of your choice).

You can select between analog,digital or
optical signals to get the best possible
sound,which can be enhanced still further
by using the "easy jog" knob.

There is also a function which
enables you to place the name of the artist,album and track on a digital display window,should you require it.

The unit itself is really quite small
264x305x86mm and weighs in at a slight
4 kg,it is an expensive looking unit
with a nice grey finish. All of this of
course doesn't matter, its the results
that count.Compressed mp3 files come out
virtually perfect,and a copy of a cd shows
no audible loss of sound quality.

On top of all this the unit comes with a

nifty handset that means you can be lazy
when playing your music,just sit back and
enjoy the results of pure harmony!
