Aiff or Flac

I did lots of reading last year before I ripped 200 cd's to an SSD drive. The consensus I found was AIFF files were preferable to FLAC. Flac being a compressed format.  I know I saw there is a non compressed flac too?

Reason I bring this up, is I'm reading here on some posts some folks ripping to FLAC as their preferred vehicle. I'll do more searches here in Audiogon. If anyone has opinions I'd be grateful.

Hello Ottoa63,

 I do not have a solution for your question, but a question myself. May I ask for your expertise and guidance? ow can I connect my music collection on a FLAC USB to my pre-amp listed here? My sound system is an early 80s ‘stack’ system.

None of the components are digital: Bryston 2B solid state amp, Conrad-Johnson PV-11 pre-amp, MIT 330 interconnects, MusicWave phase-equalized speaker cables, California Audio Labs CD Alpha and Delta drive, Dual 1129 turntable. B&W 803 speakers.

I would appreciate your suggestions and guidance on the matter.Thank you.
