Denon CDR-W1500 Dual-Drive CD Recorder

1. Posted: Jun 28 2008

   I bought this equipment thinking I could record my LP's until I read on page 7 under notes: Do not make a connection to the PHONO jack of the amplifier. Doing so will lead to breakdown. All I needed was my turntable, amplifier and a cd recorder which were not too popular at that time. The Operating Instructions Manual is thorough and complete.

   Has worked perfectly. Easy to use, easy-to-understand user manual. Very good sound quality, and plays and copies HDCD too. Plus, it has a volume-controlled headphone jack output. Absolutely worth the price.

   This CD recorder is very nicely engineered and has a robust CD burner. One major problem is the total lack of any meaningful technical support. The owners manual was apparently translated directly from Japanese. So, many parts of this are extremely difficult to understand. Worse, if you call or Email Denon tech support they are unable to answer even simple questions. My machine will record fine off an outside source (record, tape etc) but will not copy CDs of any type or any length. I keep getting the same error message "CDR-short". Denon customer service knows nothing about this product and the manual does not address this problem. I have never been able to copy a CD with this machine, although I have made hundreds of copies using other CD recorders. Prospective buyers are cautioned that you are on your own if you have problems with Denon equipment.
