Ripping CDs to lossless in Itunes.. HiFi approved?


Hi,

The name says it all.

I want to rip my CDs once, and do it right. I started with eac, but it's complicated to get it to work right with Apple Lossless and get the tags right.

So... I switched over to Itunes directly, ripping CDs to Apple Lossless.

Without getting too "audiophile abstract," is there anything wrong with these files?

No..nothing wrong with them...and believe me, I wouldn't have tolerated a sonic compromise (and I was absolutely expecting one). Futher, with the added benefit of using the USB connection (if you are using an IMAC...don't use the headphone Optical route)... the sound quality is outstanding. There are reportedly technical reasons for the USB superiority...To the point that some feel an IMAC with a decent USB capable DAC could ecclipse the perfomance of all but the most expensive stand-alones.

In my opinion, totally hi-fi approved...I will never go back to dedicated CD players...never!
