I have my own custom script for ripping & encoding. I rip each cd twice, once each from two different drives, and compare them. I have calculated the offsets of each drive and use the -O flag on cdparanoia. Since I have two drives, and two cpus, I wrote it to do all five tasks at once in a pipeline fashion--2 ripping, 1 diffing, and 2 encoding simultaneously.
You might be able to find the offset for your drive from the database here: http://accuraterip.com/driveoffsets.htm The offset for cdparanoia is the accuraterip offset plus 6. The cdparanoia docs say that it works with negative offsets, but I've found this to not be the case--so if your drive has a negative offset, you're out of luck with cdparanoia. If you want to calculate your drive's offset, I'd be happy to tell you how.
