A long time ago this writer purchased a Tascam DA30 DAT recorder as a 2-Track mastering unit. At the time, to your correspondent, this represented the ultimate in audio quality.

Since I can't find a way to edit my review, I have to add this second review, may be I shouldn't be typing way passed midnight after a few drinks.The DA-3000 has coaxial in (and out), what it is missing is optical toslink in/out.

Purchased to make digital archives of analog formats. Machine is very easy to use. One caveat is the FAT32 file system will split your recordings at 2GB. At the best quality setting DSD128 files will be broken up every 25 mins.
