Can anyone direct me to the correct CF for the above please, I have tried 1gig and 4 gig latest by belkin, when you switch on it requires you to format, which I do via the internal format routine for the 1 gig, and it allows me to record playback, but if I switch the machine off and then switch back on again, it asks me to format the card again, as I dont have the original CF for it, I dont know what manufacture you should use... can any one help please..

All the best from Alan
 
You can go to their site and look for approved CF cards. However this sounds a bit like a recorder problem. I have a PMD-671 so it's pretty close and I have used Sandisk with out problems.

The 670 is older and may have a size limit. I can use up to 4 gigs but I don't think I can use 8 with out upgrading the firmware. You might call Marantz and see if there is a firmware upgrade that would be of use. You have to send the box to them to get it done but it might be worth it.

I used a Dennon unit (Very similar to the 670) and it had an issue with not recognizing cards. Since it wasn't mine I don't know what happened to it.

I would first try some older/ slower CF cards just to see if that is an issue, but I suspect you need it serviced.
