| Which computer DVDrom is the best for ripping? I haven't used EAC in a while, but dbPoweramp tests the drive more thoroughly than EAC did a couple of years ago. EAC asks the drive whether it has a read cache. dbPoweramp tries to test its size, which is where most modern disc drives fail. It do... | |
| Which computer DVDrom is the best for ripping? LaCie will probably do you well, although I haven't tried it. They are a bit pricey. For internal DVD burners currently in production, the only ones that are worth a spit are the "industrial" DVD burners from Teac. There simply are no ROM drives t... | |
| BD-Audio How about BD-Audio on a Mac? | |
| Recording DVD-Audio? Steinberg's Wavelab series of software has some very affordable offerings that will author DVD-Audio. | |
| Internet radio stations that sound really good Something I've discovered about Shoutcast streams - the bookmarks that you create from Shoutcast's listen links on Shoutcast's site or Winamp's "Shoutcast Radio" tab do not last last.

| Apple vs PC for Music System A PC is the far superior choice for audio for the simple reason that you can order an Auzentech Prelude with a pair of OPA 637SM installed on the front L/R channels for $470 including shipping. There's nothing on an Apple to compete with that. (Yo... | |
| Computer speakers? John, this is the thread for expensive speakers. | |
| Computer speakers? I just bought the Mackie MR8 and am very happy with them (they are much cheaper than the HR824). I decided on a nice 2.0 system rather than a mediocre 2.1 system (the Tapco line). I live in an apartment (don't want to own a house) and I am not kee... | |
| Computer Speakers Under $200? The Swans were ~$300 IIRC and they have been out of production for years. | |
| Internet radio stations that sound really good All the 24seven stations, including Adagio and StreamingSoundtracks.com, use HE-AAC-PS. That's why Adagio's free stream was so impressive. | |
| Internet radio stations that sound really good Oops, Cesky rozhlas D-dur does have a home page even though there's no link to it from Icecast:http://www.rozhlas.cz/d-dur/english | |

Cesky rozhlas D-dur - No home page but you can find a listen link at Icecast.org.Radio Paradise - Should have mentioned them before. 128 kbps LC-AAC. Self-described as eclectic... |
