I'm coming to this discussion late and someone may have mentioned this
but the sounddevices 702T is a fantastic recorder, full timecode
cababilities (24, 25, 29.97 etc.), rugged metal housing 192khz sample
rate (or whatever you want) It is pricey $2500 ish but completely worth
it.

I will second that the zoom H4 is a decent unit. I've been using one for
about 1 year now and have used it in a variety of situations including
loud rock shows, nature, voice, etc. The 24bit 96khz sounds great plus a
horde of different mp3 compressions. 2 combo XLR + 1/4" jacks, phantom
power, plus the excellent built in mics seal the deal. My only
complaints are: a lame, crowded menu architecture, cheezy rock n roll
features and cheap-o plasticness. but that's what you get for low$$$. I
have dropped it twice and it still works.

I like the Zoom H4, very handy for field recording and with all kinds
of compression options including 44, 48 and 96Khz which sounds
amazing. The built in mics give a good stereo image. And it is not an
expensive unit.
