Remember the market Marantz hoped to address with the PMD660. The
machine is designed to record the human voice with closely placed
mics, for professional customers like court stenographers, speech
therapists, teachers, and ENG.  That's why Marantz paid as much
attention to rugged construction as they did to preamp quality.=20

The $400 Edirol R-1, on the other hand, was designed with student
musicians and garage bands in mind.  So having decent quality preamp
and A/D circuitry is more important than sturdy construction and XLR
connectors.
