You're going to have a hard time finding one that is inexpensive. Due to SCMS, MD-to-MD copying is quite rare. Sony's new system has a 5+1 MD slot, but I'm doubtful that it can be used for MD-to-MD copying (that is, there are two mechanisms, one for a five-changer (cartridge?) and a single one. I don't know why they have it if it can't to digital-to-digital, as for the hefty price ($1200 MSRP) you should be able to. I don't know if it is a carousel for the CD's, as it may be a cartridge (magazine-style changer). I'm unsure though. It has all the outputs you'd ever need, except Sony has dropped the cassette tape on its bookshelf systems. You WILL NOT find a system that has all of what you listed, especially the inexpensive part. You might be better off buying a rack system. If you are willing, take a look on the MDCP...under bookshelf systems for the newest Japanese items (1 USD=~120 JPY). The closest thing to what you listed (and price, too), is the DHC-MD515---3 MD's (no MD-to-MD copying), 3 CD changer, tuner for N. America, tons of RCA jacks, jog dial for titling with support for IR titler (from Sony--but no PS2 port), and an optional tape deck (MDNow sells it for $150, but you'd be better off getting it direct from Sony). This unit costs about $400. Hope this helps. -Adam >I need some help choosing a book shelf MD system. There are SO many on = >the market and after a while they all start to look the same.
