Buy the Nakamichi.  It's built like a tank and has the headroom you need for
live recording.  I would suggest the BX-2 instead of the BX-1 simply because
it has Dolby C, which gives higher S/N and headroom than Dolby B.  In fact,
an external dbx NR unit might be a good idea
if you are recording some really dynamic stuff.

In general, Sony decks (and others) never have the raw performance, quality
construction, consistency and stability that the
lowest priced Nak decks have, offering instead a bunch of useless bells
and whistles.
