Awhile back, someone on the list was asking about an MP3 player type of
thing that could also be used as a portable music recording device.
An audiophile friend of mine has an iAudio LX5 or XL5 (something like
that, I forget the last part of the model). It has a very very clean
stereo line-in connection, and can record audio as FLAC or WAV. He's
been using it to digitize his collection of vinyl albums. Tonight we
listened to the digitized version of a performance of Handel's concerti
grossi (the vinyl is over 40 years old). The digitized sound quality was
marvelous.
It works beautifully with Linux - just plug in the USB cable and his
Linux systems see the 30GB hard drive with no problems.
