So I'm guessing that some folks would say - if you've already ripped your library to Apple Lossless and are looking to improve the sound, it's better to re-rip everything to AIFF than to simply convert the existing Apple Lossless files to AIFF by pushing a button? Or does it not make a difference?
Ripping to Mac OSX
I have good ears, but no real computer knowledge. I've just purchased a Mac Mini with Snow Leopard, running it via USB (for now) into a PS Audio PWD.
I don't have a huge collection, so at this point, I've just decided to save into WAV format using Itunes.
Questions:
Is there a sonic reason to use another program other than Itunes to rip normal redbook CDs?
On non hirez, is there a reason to use a player other than Itunes for sound quality reasons?
I very much enjoy reading the posts on this thread. I've learned much, though quite a bit of the info shared is over my head!
