cdparanoia on Linux behaves much like EAC on windows. I had a CD with a large circumfrential scratch about halfway around the CD in the middle of a track (put there by a dodgy portable player with a battery cover inside the CD case, under the disc), basically rendering it unplayable on any CD player I tried it in, and unrippable by WMP. cdparanoia just slowed down, and kept trying. I think it was hours, maybe overnight. It got the track out and I certainly couldn't detect any audible defects at all on the track--I expected some noise or distortion.
I have no doubt the Nova machine is good, and they obviously care a lot. It's hard to believe some of their more snake-oil sounding claims. -- mrfantasy --Mike ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mrfantasy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1127 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31595 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
