    MP3 encoding rate for best quality

    Come to think of it, I ripped a lot of CDs to mp3 just to have music on my iPod for working out and use in the car. I never really did it for home use. I just use it at home for when I have people over and junk like that. If I am in a music mood I usually listen to the CD or if I am lucky, SACD...

    MP3 encoding rate for best quality

    with iTunes you can do variable bit rate too. I find that ripping at 192k in AAC is the perfect sound to space combo I have found. actually 160k AAC aint too bad either. I used to rip to variable bit rate mp3s (128-256) and those always sounded good, but now I do AAC. if you have time...

    DualDisks vs SACD/DVD-Audio

    so, what is the difference between a regular CD stereo CD and LPCM stereo? also, I would prefer artist and company to release more 5.1 mixes on DVD-A or SACD but if Dual Disc gets artist to at least start mixing in 5.1 maybe that can be a step towards doing 5.1 mixes is hi res. I actually...

    Star Wars Revenge of the Sith **SPOILER** THREAD

    after watching return of the jedi last night. i still like the fight between luke and vader best. it might not be the flashy kung fu movie wire work, but it has a lot of emotion and just some classic sword work. i think i don't like about the new cleaned up trilogy is that they changed the...

    Star Wars Revenge of the Sith **SPOILER** THREAD

    i agree that the vader/luke fight in ROTJ was epic and still my favorite. it might not have the choreography but it felt like it had more feeling and emotion. or maybe it is just the feeling that i got when i first saw it has stuck with me over the years. the obi-won/anikin fight is right up...

    Your favourite DVD for showing your GRUNT!

    ditto, i allways that scene should have rumbled a lot more. a good part of that movie is a little bit before that when obi won goes to kamino and that flying thing come sout of the water. that part sounds pretty awesome.
