I have been using DB Poweramp for years ,you do a slower rip ,and
reread for accuracy ,it even allows you to change Flac,wav, DSD, even Apple from any format at a later date if you choose , and clean the cd first, most people don’t
realize they stamp the CDs out ,not burn 🔥 thsts why burnt CDs sound better
much more accurate , Thst being said they apply a powerder as a lubricant when pressing , the cable co. Sel what’s called Art de son , it a clean liquid a couple sprays and it cleans all the crap out of the pits truly sounds better then you rip it.
once you get to a upper end system then everything counts when streaming
good Ethernet cables ,usb cable,linear power supply to router ,and good quality Ethernet switch , as well as dac innous great Ethernet switch very apparent streaming upgrade ,my brother has the best I have heard $3700 retail it better be good .and is !!And my highest recommendation fora Best Buy dac I know 6 people now ,I myself am saving for it it meets or beats anything $15k or under $7200 retail
T+A 200 dac A bit pricy for many but truly a bargain by Audiophile standards .
