Yeah the Maxell and Sony are pretty good and now that you've confirmed the audio as coming from TY that's even better. I've had Sony dvds and Maxell by prodisc which isn't too bad.

I also burn my CDs at 16x and maybe 24x as I heard that from the factory the CDs come at 24x and the DVDs at 12x. I'm not a 100% positive on this, but burning hasn't produced any bad results w/good media at 12x and the 24x for DVDs and CDs respectively.

My 2 sata sammys have a slow lead in and usually max out at the given speed I set for them w/ImgBurn. On these 2 drives I'll burn my DVDs at 16x w/16x media and at 12x w/8x media from TY. That's only because of the lead in and max out time.
