That's what I was talking about, too. I, too, can hear a difference in the
sound quality between, for example, Winamp and WMP, even when each has its
equalizer disabled. In fact, that is how I habitually use them -- with
equalizer disabled.
But, perhaps, the difference both your friend and I
Well, I have a VERY high quality stereo sound system, through which I play
the output of my computer's sound card. and, with that configuration, Winamp
sans equalizer sounds much better, to my ear, than anything I can easily
achieve with either WMP or Realplayer, even with their respective
And reality is also that equalizer settings does weaken the sound quality
somewhat when they are used? You would not necessarily hear this on a set
of computer speakers but you may here it on a good hifi stereo system.

There is a pole on the jsonar web site asking the question: Do you run more
than one version of JSonar on the same machine? Looks like only one person
has taken the pole so far, me.

Hi Dana
Ah this was exactly the comment I heard from my friend.
Thanx. The debate I think will probably neever be resolved about this.
There are so many factors which can influence.
Another interesting thing: if you use a high quality digital to analog
sound device, will there be a difference
There shouldn't be a difference. I never play Cds on my computer. I rip them
to the hard drive, then play them with winamp, through my stereo system.
When judging how well this sounds, I've always use what I call the 'Where
did I put the jewel case? test; and my system always passes. grin.
Hi
Since people are talking about different pleyers which may not be known
to all of us, could someone please post links to these players?

As far as appearance on the screen is concerned Winamp out does them all.
The best test would be to defeat the equalization settings, and then compare
the various players. I would be surprised if there was a noticeable
difference between the players. The best test would be to play a familiar
Hello guise and girls,
I have two sound cards in my computer.
One of them for the audio, is going in to a speaker system that uses a pare
of vacuum tube amplifiers.
The other one, is hooked up to a pare of computer speakers.
These are the ones that I listen to jaws through.
Rather I'm using WMP
Hi bob
I certainly agree with you about the clarity of the sound as compared to
for example bass that is overpowering. Especially since I listen to a lot
of acoustic music.

And using an amplifier with vacuum tub es, am I right in thinking you also
prefer not to use any kind of equalization at all?

I don't have that issue with Real Player; of course, I have never used the
libraries for anything either so perhaps that's why I have never seen this
as an issue.
I use RP for listening to Podcasts downloaded with either Juice or iTunes
and for playing streams.
Wish I could assist,
Hello Andre,
The tubes can and do take care of all equalization for you.
Just as long as the signal is flat, everything on the sound stage will come
through like it's suppose to.
I don't care to much for solid state amplifiers because of the harsh
clipping and distortion that they give you when
I wish you could, too. I'm not fiercely anti-Real, like some are, but I do
prefer Winamp for playing non-Real material, resorting to Real when I have
to. But it's set up so visually, I just want to turn all that off and have
a regular little noninvasive player. It would also be nice if I could
I can't notice a difference between Windows Media Player, Realplayer and Winamp
with files where the bit rate is reasonably high.
Where I do notice a difference, however, is with audio streams with a bit rate
of 24 kBPS or less.
For me, Realplayer sounds the best at low bit rates. Also,

There has been an ongoing debate for years as to whether or not radio
stations should use a graphic equalizer on the output of their signal. The
general consensus is that the listener would much rather prefer making the
equilization adjustments on their own receiver. The Canadian Broadcasting
It is fine that the CBC don't use equalisation, but I wish they would use some
