Is somebody able to help me to make the best choice ? Sure ! I am searching for the best hardware to burn audio's CD with JAM v2.6.2 (and others cd-rom ....with Toast)

My resailer wants me to buy a LaCie. I'm not convinced.

QPS hardware would be no good.

Plextor is hard to find here, but it seems that if the mechanic is solid of course (is it ?), the soft compability with JAM should be good.

.....etc....etc. Please help me; what's in use in recording's studios ?

Plextor burners are said to be good. In my windows machine however, I have a Plextor cd rom which after only 2 is years making some trouble. I use a Yamaha scsi burner and it's working properly.

I looked at the plextor also. It looked good but I couldn't find one.

I finally ended up with a Sony Spressa 12x8x32 firewire CDRW.

It's been fast and reliable, even burning at the fastest speeds. I highly recomend it.

I have a Mac G3 (Beige) and I have been quite satisfied with the YAMAHA CRW4416SX Burner and I use Toast 3.5.7 I bought it a couple of years ago.

I have been using a LaCie USB burner with the latest release of Toast and everything works well on my iMac, although I have had some problems with audio on the 80 minute CD's which I don't think has anything to do with the burner. My retailer also recommended LaCie and I took his advice for warranty reasons more than anything.
