This Sony MDS JB920  mini-disc recorder is a perfect addition to a large LP collection since you can record your most precious vinyl and playback a perfect copy without wearing out your vinyl.  I have been using it with my collection of over 6,000 lp's but now find myself beginning to thin out my equipment list due to moving to smaller quarters.  My loss is your gain.  There is separate digital and analog recording controls so you can record from both CD's as well as LP's.  The mini discs hold a lot of music and take up very little room. 

Features: ES deck functions in a mid-range priced deck. ATRAC 4.5. Variable pitch and speed control, range: -95% (!) to +12.5%. Digital Record Level Control for recording and playback. A-B delete. User settable LEVEL SYNC threshold (i.e. silence threshold for track-marking). Two-Line front panel display. CD Text and Custom File Transfer automatically records and displays disc and track information when recording from CD to MD. R-Core Power Transformer, 20-Bit Analog-to-Digital Converter, Current Pulse Digital-to-Analog converter and Anti-resonant Aluminum Front Panel. 6 second time machine recording. S-Link circuitry allows operation with other S-link equipped Sony A/V products Can be controlled with a GUI interface from a PC or Mac with the PCLK-MD1 connection kit and software. RM-D17 remote (not included). Date and time stamp recording. Unit does not spin the disc in record-pause mode (as the JE500 and JE510 do).
