I am not familar with VLC but I tried the other two media players & liked J. River much better. Now I am using J. River as the gui and JPLAY for the playback. For a vinyl lover I am very surprised how good it sounds. You can try J.River for free but JPLAY needs J.River & will set you back 100 EUROS : it is well worth it. Once you purchase a license from JPLAY they send you the upgrades for free.
PC Media Players - significant SQ differences?
I have been trying some of the media players offered on the net like Media Monkey and Songbird. What I don't understand is why does VLC sound so much better? the other 2 players make the sound veiled. Is there a PC setting or program setting that needs to be adjusted on the other players or is VLC that much better, the difference is significant. FYI I am playing FLAC files from a laptop to a MyDac.
