Why not rip an album at 192 and the same album at a higher rate and judge the difference for yourself on the SB on Friday.
Everyone's hearing is different and 192 may or may not be good enough for you.

Dear all,

My Squeezebox2 is scheduled to arrive on Friday. I purchased a
200gb drive w/8mb cache for $94.00 and have been ripping music through
WMP at a 192kbs rate. My question is whether this rate is enough
quality? My home audio gear is fairly decent, running an Onkyo DTS
receiver, and decent speakers and my thinking going into this process
is that I would not be able to hear much of a difference between 192
and a higher standard.
This idea may be considered blasphemy to any audiophiles out
there, but it seems to make sense to me in terms of conservative
storage space ustage. Currently I have around 800+ CDs to get in
there, I have ripped around 350 of them and there is a ton of room left
on the drive so that I will be able to continue to add music to it all
the time once my current discs are all loaded. Any thoughts that any
of you have are appreciated.
Also...once it is set up and I have the music streaming, what
are some modifications that all of you have made, what do you consider
the most important additions, and what would you do first with your new
system? It will be a rough couple of days waiting for friday, thank you
for any of your thoughts.


Ben
