Yamaha CD-RW recorders have earned praise and awards since their introduction...

 
CD-RW Central

CRW3200 "5 Stars out of 5"
"This new drive also comes with some new features that no other drive has at this time."

"Audio disc's recorded using this feature (Audio Master) was very impressive to say the least, and could make the Audio Recording Industry take a hard long look at this drive."

"The Audio disc that was recorded without the Audio Master option sounded OK, but the disc that was recorded using the new feature in Yamaha's CRW3200 drive sounded better, the music, or should I say the instruments used to produce the music/sound seemed to come 'alive'!

"The Yamaha CRW3200 is the fastest 24x CD-RW Recorder at this time, and we don't see any other 24x drive beating it."

The above excerpts for CRW3200 are taken from a review by CD-RW Central dated November 3, 2001. This is a 9 page review and you can access it at the URL below.

"The Yamaha drive burns CD-R faster than anything we've ever seen...
Ultimately, we decided that the Yamaha drive was the one for use because of its superior CD-R recording speed."

–Home Theatre, April 2001

– PC Magazine, July 2001

The new Yamaha drive can't leap tall buildings in a single bound but this mild-mannered-looking CD-RW drive will rip audio CDs almost faster than Superman can tear a phone book in half"
–PC Magazine, December 2000

"The Yamaha Lightspeed is an essential audio tool with great performance at a reasonable price."

"So is the Yamaha CRW3200E for you? If you want the best all around performance and the most features you can buy, this drive is it."
–CDRlabs.com, October 29, 2001

"Editors Choice Award!"
–CDRlabs.com, October 29, 2001

"The Yamaha CRW3200E is a very fast writer. ... Yamaha keeps its rotation speeds pegged there all the way to the 14 minute mark. This makes the Yamaha the fastest 24x writer around with an average writing speed of about 23.57x."
– CDRlabs.com, October 29, 2001

"This drive is packed full of features. Its SafeBurn recording protection system features very good buffer underrun protection, as well as an 8mb buffer. The Optimum Write Speed Control is great for anyone that wants to pop in any CD-R disc and not have to worry what its rated at. "
–CDRlabs.com, October 29, 2001

"One of the most exciting new features in this drive is the Audio Master Quality Recording mode. Increased compatibility and quality of recorded audio is something that has been needed for a long time."
– CDRlabs.com, October 29, 2001

"Probably my favorite feature, though, is the audio track editing. Once I figured out exactly how it worked, I found that it was very easy to add and remove audio tracks from CD-RW discs. Adding or deleting only a few tracks is much faster than rewriting the entire CD."
– CDRlabs.com, October 29, 2001

"For whatever your needs might be, Yamaha is here and ready to take the industry by storm"
–CDRlabs.com, June, 2001
