I have an R900 (my first MD myself), and I don't hear any kind of white 
noise or hissing with music recorded digitally via an optical cable from a 
CD player.  If I've recorded an MP3 to the disc via an analog output from my 
soundcard I DO hear a little bit of hiss, but it's completely unnoticable at 
normal listening volumes.  If I CRANK the thing to some insane volume level, 
then the hiss is very noticable.  That's basically been my experience.
