Re: [slim] Quality loss with ReplayGain?

also have lots of digital level reduction. Otherwise you may be straying into the low-SNR realm. I reckon that RG of -10dB (which is pretty much the max for very loud albums) + -10dB of level reduction is probably the safe limit. Even after that it won't sound bad... -- Phil Leigh You want to see
