Burning CDs - Best Quality?

Hello,

Can anybody help me with burning CDs? I am trying to achieve the best possible quality of me burning my music from beatport (WAV's) to Disc.

I am currently looking at buying a new burner and which one is the best for burning AUDIO CDs. In that, what is the best CD to burn AUDIO to? i.e. Sony, PHillips, Memorex, TDK?

Thanks

Re: Burning CDs - Best Quality?

Welcome to CDF!

Possibly the Plextor Premium (or Premium 2) from what I've read. Other than that, I find LG and BenQ drives burn CDs very well, both data and audio.

I do tend to keep my burn speed at 16x for burning audio CDs, though

As for media (discs)...Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden CDRs are usually recommended around here.

Hope this helps.

It's as Arachne suggests.
For media it's Verbatim Pastels (a Taiyo Yuden dye) , Verbatim Super AZO and Taiyo Yuden branded ones.
For burning with DVD burners I find the Benq 1650 & the Pioneer 111 to be best ,all at 16x.

My LG 4163 is superior, compared to the Benq. The Benq has the advantage to be still available.
