| Best CD Ripping and Playback SW Definitely use EAC (Exact Audio Copy).I like Foobar because it has lots of playback options. I have never heard a sound difference between various players but then again I have never really done any really critically listening to test different pl... | |
| Problem Recording with EAC I don't know what's going on there. I recommend Feurio for burning audio discs. It's excellent and free. | |
| Barber Cafe Blue flaw? I realized that I can only hear this noise when playing loudly, and then I noticed this same noise, coming from the right channel again, on another disc with low bass notes. I got close to the speaker and determined that the noise was actually com... | |
| Best digital cable to audition? Albert,I'm curious to know how the two cables you mention compare to each other. What are their threngths and weaknesses? | |
| Is this ludicrous or not? Don't take reviews seriously (unless for serious entertainment). They're all CRAP!!! I have only been involved in this hobby for a relatively short period of time, but I learned this very early. | |

| Vandersteen 2c sock removal I know that if I shine a flashlight through my speaker grills I can see the drivers pretty well. This is probably dependent on how tightly woven the grill is, though. I'm not sure what the Vandersteen's is like. | |
| what is a redbook cd player? Pawlowski6132,"Redbook cds" and "regular cds" are synonyms in this case. | |
| What about a product can irritate you? Other Thiel owners have no doubt struggled with this one: Binding posts under the speaker. What were they thinking?! If you want to swap cables you're basically stuck with repositioning your speakers. If you have them spiked through carpet it's an... | |
| Besides the soundcard.... does the computer itself the celeron and p4 should make everything worse. go with a 64 bit AMD processor which is more advanced :)seriously, none of the listed components should make any difference in sound quality. | |
| Playing old reel to reel...help Keis, I'm just curious, who have you recorded? | |
| Anyone heard the Onkyo sp 1000 yet? Redbook is regular cd (16bit/44.1khz), not sacd, dvd-a, etc. |
