Thanks for your help & advice everyone. Yesterday I was mainly referring to the etree page "CD-R FAQ". It goes into a some of the details about EAC, but I think it would help generally if there was a link to Dick's EAC-setup page (which I found very helpful). Today, looking back, I found that etree also has the "howto" page, which I might have found if I'd looked harder. However, even the "howto" page only links to Dick's site and it isn't obvious how to navigate to the EAC-setup page (seems you have to click on "Articles").

Once those are correct, you will be extracting exact copies. > >If you extract with EAC but burn with something else, you must use EAC's >combined read/write offset...and you will never get exact copies. They'll >be damn close (having missing or repeated samples)...but never exact. Now, this gives me pause, because when I did a "compare WAV" with EAC, it reported no differences. I wrote the disk using Adaptec Easy CD Creator 4.02d. Does EAC not compare every single byte, or does "never" here really mean "90% never"?
