How often do you use your unit?

[xtbk9999]

hi, new to the forum.

anyone know what's the general lifespan of the lens on recording unit?

the more often you use the unit to record/write discs, the less lifespan for the lens is likely to be?

have had my NH700 for almost 2 years now, always feel that it might breakdown anytime.

when reading about people's fault units

so I now use my old R700 for playback sometimes, just don't want to use the NH700 so much.

also deciding to get a EH70 later, how does the sound quality compare to NH700?

I think normal wear and tear will eventually wear down any piece of technology. But it obviously depends on how well you treat your unit and (I assume) whether or not you use an MD lens cleaner. That's the reason why many people on these forums own playback-only (Hi-)MD units - to save wear and tear on their recorders.

Sound quality will depend on your ears, your headphones/earphones, your taste, etc, but if it makes any difference to you, the EH70 has the HD (high definition) digital amp while the NH700 does not.

PS 2 years with your NH700 ... don't jinx it.
