Hi Leland,

Thanks for the informative post.

How do you find the sound of the R900, compared to your previous equipments?
How are the bass/treble controls?

Any info or opinions will be great. By the time all major portables of this
generation roll out (early next year?), I'll be buying a new recorder, and
this is the first time I'm seriously considering a Sony.

Really, Sony's getting better, it seems. Defeatable end search, defeatable
beep :) Despite the fact that they took out the unit-side bass switch on the
E900.
