Very simple to use, and (so far) dependable. Owned it about 3 years
Playback is noticeably not as nice as my middle of the road Sony player. I feel like it's the common issue that you can only fit so much quality into a chassis for a given dollar amount. I use the Pioneer for recording but when I want to listen, I put the CD into the Sony - no problem.
I don't understand the folks having issues with recording media. I assume they are not using CDs designed for Digital Audio - this recorder REQUIRES that you use CD-R and CD-RW which say Digital Audio on them.
Really simple method for duplicating CDs, using optical digital input. The 609 will copy and finalize with the push of a couple of buttons.
The Pioneer PDR609 makes nice recordings from vinyl as well, although please forget any ideas you have that much of the process is automated; the track-sensing software in this (and I bet almost all others) recorder really can't do a good job of dividing one song from another by itself. Therefore you have to sit with it and tell it (via front plate or remote) to 'start a new track now.'
