      I have not used either of these field recorders, and I can only afford one.  Soooooo... with a $749 budget, which one is it?

      I really like the XLR inputs and the portability of each.  I'm leaning toward the Samson ($250) instead of $500 for the Marantz.

      Has anybody used either?  ...or both?  Which one sucks?  Let's hear it!  c'mon!!!  It's a product THROWDOWN. Ã�  Blood on the forum, let's go!!!!

      Honestly, I have read almost nothing but praise for both.

      Or not! 

      It seems that I've forgotten the Ghandi oath of non-violence on VideoMaker.  Well, I've considered all the votes and decided on the H4. 

      I found this; http://videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/audio-sync-1?replies=41 ...excellent thread about synchronizing with the H4.

      I'll try again later with a more compelling thread. 

      Cheers!
