Best value:
Excellent
I auditioned for this unit for 1 month.
I owned a Zoom H2, a Fostex FR2 On a Yamaha C24, I have a Sony PCM M10, an Olympus LS-3.
One of the few recorders size "pocket" and quality. The new firmware Tascam DR-2d gives more autonomy, the average user gives 5h with ordinary alkaline and works well with Ni Mh.
To change the firmware must be at some point push 3 buttons at the same time, I took me a while to understand it. On other sites you compare this to the best recorders like the Sony D50.

My tests confirm the good sound quality compared to Sony Pcm M10 and Olympus LS-3.
Detailed sound image and transparency, there is very little exceeds the HD600 headphones the Olympus LS-3, LS-5, LS-10 in accuracy, one could almost confuse the results, a little more transparency to the DR-2D but a breath (S / N) higher in very quiet environment usually imperceptible. The stereo is good.
Monitoring, listening with headphones directly from the DR-2D is not perfect I would give 8 out of 10. Against 10/10 for leM10 and 5/10 for the LS-3.
Very sensitive to wind even imperceptible it is imperative to Dr-2D a Rycote permanently
This requires a good result does not use the Auto mode to record only the manual mode, and set to "OFF" all the recording options, limiting filter, etc. ...
Appreciated for the ability to simultaneously record two sound sources, such as a file content in memory and a line or microphone input. I have not managed to record an external microphone with internal microphones +. Mode with "dual" one can record in doubles with an offset of-12dB, a practice not to be surprised and be confident in the result.
In the menu options: - Record in mono. Pre REc, Delay, metronome.
Transformer not included.
The amp is a little weak, we are already saving on HIGHT volume 10/10 with Dr. el-2d and only slow the M10 Mid and with the LS-3. The value for money is good it is found now at the end of production to 200 €.
Qualities, sound quality, dual recording, light and pocket.
Defects: Like most recorders Auto mode is not annoying parfait.Souffle Registration as a distant owl all night and calm moods. Sensitive to the wind as with all directional microphones. Amp is underpowered.
