Any Good CD Recorder/Players?


I'm looking for a quality CD recorder that can also perform well as a CD player. I intend to use the recorder mostly for recording LP's and mixes.
I'm not looking for Class A (I'm not sure one even exists) rather a good deck which would fit with my Roksan Caspian Integrated, Music Hall MMF-5 and Epos M-12's. Anything?

i am recording to a polaroid DVD recorder with
hard drive. cost at walmart $200 . 80 gig hard drive. 160 available. I have opened mine and just pop in a 500 gig drive if you want I understands it is automatically formatted correctly. I record to dvd hi res format on the hard drive or DVD. if yu record to hard drive yu can dub to DVD. take the DVD to computer and strip out audio with a program. ( i use DVD audio extractor) i can record 7-10 records on one DVD. I filled up the hard drive with 125 vinyl. you have to put in video feed to do this ( i use vhs at SLP lately i stop the vhs and as long as the blue screen is there it keeps recording with no video. i just records the blue screen.) Dvd audio extractor can rip the audio out to commanw formats ( inlcluding wave and mp3 and flacc and also the mpeg audio dvd format!. ( the mpeg audio sounds better than mp3 according to my tests) play back from the dvd hard drive or DVD itself compared to a vinyl playback of the same record (in real time) sounds identical to me. There is even option (i have not used yet) bring the polaroid machine to your computer and hook sound in direct via digital inputs-(if your sound card has the digital inputs) i dont know if mp3 players will play the mpeg audio file. my dvd player will not!! here is test file of 1950s urania opera stars made using my rega turntable XLO Interconnects and acurus phono state.
