In stereo nirvana...
If I was to use one of those with a MiniDisc deck (using its analogue outs), does that mean in theory I could do direct digitial copies to CD-R, including automatic track spacing?
any idea about 'quality'? It does not give much that I can understand on the specs.
I am interested in taking output from
a) old but good Denon DRS 610 cassette player
b) the suround pre-out from Denon AVR2802
converting into digital and thence to
Dax Decade dac/pre-amp and a power amp [at present I have a 'switchable' integrated].
A top-end AV processor with A/D is my sometime upgrade but this would seem to move me along.

Well, the Maplin A/D convertor is quite frankly crap 
.
It has a 'Sync' option (a small buffer) but if you use it the RFI is frightening; the sort of stuff that sounds like a poorly tuned radio. It's everpresent whining [a bit like English football supporters
] is enough to induce a serous headache.
So the obvious solution would be to keep the Sync off. Eh, no because the sound drop outs, every 30 seconds or so, are as bad as a Swiss referee :MILD: !

.Pardon my ignorance but is 'A/D convertor' the same as DAC? Or does it do things the other way around?
