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):

Albert - I use version 2.3.3 4318/19. It is called 19, but comes up 18. The link is on my audiocircle.com forum if you awant to download it. I have compared it to 2.3.3 4344 and 2.4 4347 and I prefer it. It is not too buggy if you avoid 192 and 176 tracks.

Make sure you use the two uninstall scripts in the extras folder if you already have an Amarra installed.
