Jplay and Jriver is the best current combo for PC, however the right version of Amarra on Mac still beats it IMO.

One must be careful of using not only the best playback software, but the best CD ripping software as well, dbpoweramp/Accurate Rip with PC and XLD with Mac.

Here are some more tips (no advertising):

Realremo - JRiver does have a memory playback option. It does it on a track by track basis. Loading up a track takes negligible time and is done at the very end of the last track and during the gap. This method means the amount of memory available on a system is not a limiting factor, except for very long tracks. It supports kernel streaming and WASABI and has WASABI Event Mode, which is a version optimized for aysync USB DACs.
