Any one got better results than with EAC?


ExactAudioCopy software gave the best results in burning cdrs (at 2X), with the memorex black CDR. It had warm sound with smooth highs - tamed the digital harshness.

I haven't tried the highly regarded Taiyo Yuden CDR yet, and I am wondering, does anyone have something that will beat this, since I am new to this?

Fuji recently switched manufacturers of CDR's and are no longer being made by Taiyo Yuden. The older (TY) Fuji CDR's can still be found in some stores. The Fuji CDR's made by TY say "made in Japan" on the spindle label, and on the actual CDR. The new Fuji CDR's that say "made in Taiwan" are not being manufactured by TY.

Paul,

Thank you very much for that update, I will keep that in mind when I am again in the market for CD-R's but at the moment I have a good stock of Taiyo Yuden disks to last me a few months.

If it is made in Taiwan it could be Raitek?

Lately Plextor has also come up with thier CD-R's in the market but I have not checked them out if they are Taiyo Yuden or Ricoh. Ricoh is another good manufacturer of disks.
Thanks for the detail on EAC use - it's a big program - not as intuitive to use. I should read the readme completely. They also have a forum at their sight.

I will try your suggestgions. Have you tried decompressing MP3 files? Adds something to it - harmonically richer on top. It's a wonderful free program. Everyone should use it.

If you burn from old LPs, you might want to get rid of the poping sounds with audiosurgeon program - not too expensive on amazon.

hmm mitsui gold blanks you may want to look into those.i haven't heard the ty's or fuji though.
Tried Taiyo Yuden and are better than memorex black. The best so far, although I haven't tried a mitsui yet - next. Got Taiyo for 20cents each on the web.
