Is it gapless? is always my first question about any device...usually
the answer is no and I immediately lose interest.

It sounds to me as if we're talking mainly about classical music here.
In my experience, classical CDs tend to put the gap into index 0 of the
upcoming track (that's the part where you see your CD player counting
down). If you have ripped individual tracks, then the
The issue is probably related to how the analog (aka vinyl rips) were
mastered. I used to rip a lot of vinyl back in the day and I found
that I had to insert silence in certain places to give the resulting CD
a natural flow and at the same time minimize noise from the vinyl.
For instance, I
Our setup uses SBS, and SBRs. Everything is working fine. The music -
whether an album or a hand-built playlist - plays back without gaps
between the tracks. We'd prefer to have a short gap between tracks so
I looked through SBS settings to see if this was possible.
I couldn't find anything.

Andy, I completely agree! I'm sorry I didn't make myself clear. The

I'm afraid there really is no good way to do this. You might want to try
using Fade in and out as your crossfade setting, which will at least
make it less abrupt.

Ok, I will try this, and see how it sounds. From what you say, it's
the practical thing to do with SBS.

This is very odd. All of my rips of CDs/Tracks that do have gaps play
with gaps on all my SB players. How were your CDs ripped and was there
some odd setting you used at the time of ripping that removed the gaps?

I'm not much help here, but I know that some rippers have options of
removing, adding, etc. gaps. I highly recommend dbpoweramp as a CD
ripper for FLAC. At least in my case, it addresses gaps perfectly with
no special setting. That is, if it is a live concert or pink
