This may well be true, however, I have personally used a Hi-Fi VHS recorder for audio only many times. The decks I have even have a special setting for this purpose. If yours doesn't, you can use any video signal you like, just plug in your audio cables and go. The advantages of this method are long recording times (6 hours), the built-in timer for un-attended recording and, of course, outstanding audio quality. I would suggest making a copy of a favorite CD onto a VHS tape and comparing the original and the copy. I'm pretty sure you will be amazed at the results. This of course assumes that your VHS deck is in good shape, has no tracking problems, etc. Dan _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 helps eliminate e-mail viruses.
