SO, I have a 1120 or 1125 or something coming my way. I know Dokorders are supposed to be out-of-the-box garbage, and I remember a crazy 8010 my friend had when we were little (early 90s). So I did some research about the company and there's very little out there. SO..
-when did the company go under?
-I have read that despite the name, Dokorder and what we know as "Onkyo" are two totally unrelated companies. True?
-who started the company? Is there a predecessor/succesor company that IS related?
-Why would anyone buy a Dokorder when, for the same money, you could get a Teac with the same features?
-Has anyone out there had a GOOD experience with these machines?
-was Dokorder considered crap even back then (such as Yorx and Soundesign)?
-I've always pronounced the name "da-KORDer"... but a co-worker of mine (who owned one) says "DO-korder." Who's right?
