You can achieve better sound be eliminating the soundcard and replacing with a USB to S/PDIF interface. This will virtually eliminate the jitter caused by the S/PDIF cable and interfaces. It can also have a very stable clock such as a Superclock2 for outputting S/PDIF data. Beats any transport for lowest jitter.
Music Match, WinAmp, Foobar200, Which softawre
For years Ive been using musicmatch to rip and play CDs. Recently bought a Cary 303/200 and am planning to use if for the D/A conv..
Recently downloaded EAC for ripping and winamp and foobar for playing. EAC has a great front end but I dont like foobars but suposed has best playback.
Anyone make some more suggestions to try out. Im looking ofr sound quailty and ease of use. I have approx 8,000 mp3s so i need one that can handle large libraries and sort them by artist(not directory).
