I think they definitely do differ; an I, for one, prefer the sound quality I get from Winamp, to either WMP or Realplayer. If you don't want it, you can disable Winamp's equalizer, as well as the features that send it web browsing.

Not liking its interface, I've never used QuickTime for anything other than playing streams that will only play in QT. But what about it is supposed to be superior for audiophile listening? I've never found Winamp deficient in that regard.

If your synthesizer pronounces them identically, instruct your customized pronunciation dictionary that Dana=dayna.

Subject: Does the sound quality of different software media players differ?


Hi to all on the list

I realise that the subject I am talking about now is a rather controversial
one but here goes anyhow!

Is there a difference in sound quality between different software media
players like windows media player, winamp, etc.? I read somewhere that some
people  recommend  Quicktime for audifile use.

I have a professional quality emagic soundcard hooked up to a high quality
sound system and want to get the best possible sound quality out  of the
system.

If at all possible, I would like a high quality media player with no
equalizer setting and no connection to the internet at all!  It just needs
to be play music.  Why on earth would you need equalizer settings if you
need a good sound system?!!

Andre
