Unless you're using ReplayGain, the advantages of FLAC v. ALAC really come down to personal preference. Since you're using Slim Devices and Apple products you choose which features are less painful to give up.
I wouldn't be ripping to 48KHz for reasons previously stated, but iTunes or Max ( http://sbooth.org/Max/ ) should fine for ripping. There are a lot of inaccurate into on web about iTunes (especially on OS X which has AppleScript support). -- blessingx '★' (http://www.last.fm/user/blessingx/) -'this american life' (http://thislife.org/), 'take-away shows' (http://www.blogotheque.net/spip.php?page=cae_all&lang=en), 'jazz profiles' (http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=10208861), 'streaming soundtracks' (http://www.streamingsoundtracks.com/)- macbook ))) ⊗ squeezebox 3 → assemblage dac1 → rudistor nxØ2 sistema → at w1ØØØ / etys er4p/s ⊗ squeezebox 3 → parasound 11ØØ hd #1 → stax srm-ØØ7t → stax lambda sig / lambda pro ⊗ squeezebox 3 → parasound 11ØØ hd #2 → single power extreme platinum → senn hd58Ø x2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ blessingx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11754 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=52812
