Philips CDR765 2-Disc CD Recorder

Pros: speed, high definition sound, track labeling
Cons: a little pricey

I definitely recommend this item. I have had mine for 3 months, and I have already saved myself tons of money. It is simple to use, and it is great that u can give ur tracks names on the cd for ease of finding ur songs on mixes. The specs below speak...

Pros: Records from LPs, CDs and tapes
Cons: finding the less expensive CDs

I recently bought this CD recorder and I love it! My main reason was to record my many LPs so that I don't have to rebuy them on CDs. I find that it has been very easy to use and I have been able to successfully make CDs without making any mistakes. So...

Pros: Convenience, easy to use, saves money if you use it enough
Cons: Double speed is still too slow for me

Since I was a little kid and I purchased my first cd, I always wanted to record onto cd. Just last year, I purchased the Phillips CDR765BK cd recorder. Right from the start, I was amazed at the ease of recording a cd. I learned how to record from disc to...

Pros: It does the job.
Cons: It many not satisfy everyone.

I received this CD Recorder as a gift, after my ancient CD Player went bad...

Of course my parents bought this for me and I gave them specific instructions on what I did and did not want, and this product is what they got me.

Pros: Great quality
Cons: Can't record seconds into a song

I have always wanted to record cd to cd. I loved making mixes of my music, but hated the quality of a tape. They would break, the sound was lispy, and every once in a while they would deteriorate and the sound would break up.

When this bad boy...

Pros: works with CD recordable and audio recordable discs
Cons: a little high priced.

Remember way back when you used to make a tape of favorite tracks from your record or tape collection? Well, this dual-tray CD recorder lets you make a CD of personal favorites from your CD collection. Then play them back on any CD player.
This...

Pros: great features (dubbing), record from other sources
Cons: high price and computer burners are a little better

I own the 765 and can honestly say that it is a great product. It is extremely expensive, but it is worth it, especially if you are a music fanatic. The dubbing feature is really cool, especially if you want to make a quick copy for a friend or a family...

Pros: Easy to use, good price point
Cons: Double speed is still slow! Uses Audio CDR

The Philips CDR765 is a two-tray, audio CD recorder that is affordable and does a credible, if not spectacular, job copying your favorite CDs.

What makes it special is its ease of use and the fact that you can burn CDs from your collection at...

Pros: Recording quality
Cons: Lack of programmable control or interface

Like everyone else who loves music, I own numerous CD's with only 1 or 2 good songs on them. That is why I bought & love this product.

The recording quality is much better than I get with my computers R/W CD-ROM drive, but it takes a...

Pros: Easy to use, quick to learn, copies well.
Cons: expensive CDRs, inability to control the second tray via remote.

Well, I had heard of the possibility of making my own music CDs but had thought that was reserved to those out there who have awesome computers and extra money to spend. Fortunately, I had also heard of Phillips-Magnovox's CDR component stereo parts....

Pros: dubbing without another digital out cd player
Cons: no optical digital outputs

I bought the Philips 765 CD recorder as a returned item at Best Buy for only $226! The only shortcoming I could see was the fact that there were no optical digital outputs, only coaxial. Also, after testing the unit, I found that it was a little bit...

Pros: Ease of use.
Cons: Over-priced considering how finicky, picky & inconsistent it is.

I purchased the unit in 12-99. As of mid 2004, I could no longer use the system for recording, as it became horribly inconsistant & routinely crapped-out before the copying was complete, or during the finalization process (botching the $2 cdr in both ...

Pros: Basic functions easy to use.
Cons: Advanced features are difficult. Hard to repair.

For the better part of a year I enjoyed the 765 and it did an OK job recordings cds. Philips made it easy for the consumer by allowing the user to drop in the media and source and press two buttons to begin recording. The drawbacks come when you want to...

Pros: When it works, great sound
Cons: Pathetically poor customer service

In December of 1999, I purchased a Philips CDR 770. At the point of purchase, the Salesperson strongly advised me to buy an extended warranty. I did not: Big mistake.
The cd burner quickly developed a habit of ceasing to record during...

Pros: high speed dubbing
Cons: incomplete digital synchronization

If you were to bring home the Philips CDR765BK, you would definitely be happy with its ability to record a complete CD in half the time of the original. Many people who purchase CDRs, however, also want to make compilation discs with various artists....
