To get better quality playback, don't hook up hard disks to your Mac mini. Purchase either a NAS device or hook these hard drives to a remote server so your music server won't have any disk drive noise or vibrations coming from these external disks nor will they compete on the same bus that connects to your external dac.

However, the unit referred to available here at Audiogon great price! Even by burning in FLAC, you would fall short of internal storage of 2, CDs and would to need external storage to cope, adding another piece to the puzzle. You guy are great. Thank you for your help! Right now I've got three choices: 1. Use my MacBook Air with an external drive 2. The Naim UnitiServe 3. Get a streamer that runs off a nas Number 1 is the least costly.

Number 2 is the easiest and as long as I can get a good 5 years of use I see no reason other than budget to get one. Number 3 is attractive in that a streamer would cost less Cambridge Audio CXN and the music would always be on the nas And to answer a couple of questions; My computer is 5 years old and uses USB 2. Whichever way I go it's going to be at least a month before I buy anything.

I just heard from Kent at Electrostatic Solutions. I sent my Quad speakers to him for some repair. The repair cost was very reasonable, so reasonable that I'm springing for some upgraded mods, and there goes my budget.

I'm thinking that I'll rip some cds in a casual sort of way and start messing around just using my Macbook and next month make a long term decision. Thank you all again for your input and I certainly don't mind keeping this thread alive.

I would like to hear rips with the Unitiserve. To compound the problem, I found rips via dbpoweramp on a different Macbook sounded totally different. I guess I am much like Ghosthouse, jump in and take a pragmatic approach.

I rip via itunes to AIFF with the error correction. Use both a Macbook pro and a Mac mini. I have found that some CDs do take longer than others, however not 15 min. I use Pure Music for playback. I have had little problem with the learning curve, and enjoy the flexibility of computer audio. The Macbook pro allows me to take my music where ever I go. I don't know how to quote others since I am new here, however, I read that the seller of the Naim Unitiserve is including a 6TB external drive for full price offer.

I have no affiliation, just trying to help the OP. Good luck! Data loss due to scratches up to about 4mm along the track is automatically corrected by Cross-interleaved Reed-Solomon error correcting code. Between mm player that operates in real time interpolates samples while scratches longer than 8mm result in pops and clicks. Badly scratched disks can be completely recovered but it can take hours. Itunes went over the same bad CDs much faster meaning that it probably quits and interpolates just after few tries.

My GF found some old bare CDs in the glove compartment of her car that had been there for years. Jewel boxes totally MIA. Scratched, stained, and stuck together. I cleaned them up as best I could and XLD turned a sow's ear into a silk purse. I couldn't believe it.

YMMV but it taught me to put a little more effort into the ripping process. Of course, I would never treat my CDs that way. Update: I've begun ripping my cds. I am using iTunes as the software. Settings are AIFF with error correction on. My first couple of cds ripped at about x. All subsequent cds dropped to about x. No idea why. My cds are all mint. No visible scratches or dust. I'm ready to give dbpoweramp a try. Does anyone know if it manages files as well as iTunes?

Thanks in advance, Bob. That speed change. It's why I think it is good to cold boot from time to time. I have no technical explanation for this. Except I could regain ripping speed by cold-booting. I used Superdrive as well. Then they speed up to 2X, 4X, etc. For me, 8X isn't bad. I use AIFF as well. Disk space is cheap and it's compatible with both iTunes and other software that isn't compatible with ALAC.

FLAC is my first choice but it's not compatible with Apple. I have no experience with dbPoweramp so I can't advise. There's a nifty piece of software, Tag Editor, you will probably find handy at some point.

Finally, echoing what someone else wrote, when I'm ripping I'm listening. I set a goal of CDs at a time and have a nice listening session while I'm at it. My guess is that there's plenty of hidden treasures in your library that your ripping project will help you rediscover.

The easiest is to send the CDs to a CD ripping service. The best service, in terms of quality and service is: ReadyToPlay. I have no links with them other than being a happy customer.

They will make sure that all metadata is transferred correctly with pictures et all. And the sound quality is the best. I've found that the music from ReadyToPlay rips sounding better than my own rips using my own dBpoweramp on my desktop PCs.

Bob, Please stop ripping with iTunes and download and try the free XLD app on your mac as recommended by a number of people above. There are a couple of reasons why: 1 XLD guarantees bitperfect rips and reports if there are any errors. So you can change settings to rip more quickly and adjust to slower reading only when you are dealing with a scratched up disc.

As long as you get "No errors reported" you're good to go. It's free for mac and if you read computeraudiophile forums so you see that it is proven and preferred for a majority of mac users.

Ripping with XLD will eliminate the issue. Trust me on this. I am a former iTunes user who lived through the pain described on hundreds of albums ripped using iTunes years ago.

Changing to XLD now will save you tons of time and mental energy down the road regardless of which hardware and playback platform you move to in the future. Note that all the iTunes recommendations above seem to be of the flavor: "I do this" not "Here's why iTunes is best for you to use".

FWIW, about the ripping seeming daunting, I suggest not thinking of it as a race to complete. While watching sports or tv I will rip CDs during commercials etc. It only takes a few seconds of attention. Do a few a night, starting with your favs and it won't be such a chore. Cheers, Spencer. It works well, has all the "bells and whistles," and is one of the highest rated applications for ripping CD's to files. I chose these applications not only because they were widely recommended, but also because they work well on my HP Notebook - I can sit and watch the "playoffs" while I rip my CD's - very handy.

All very reasonably priced, or free, and very practical. I'd choose something, which will function well on the type of technology you already have - PC, or Mac - and No point in blowing the budget on buying new technology, because other's favor it Mac Oh yes I would not use any "computer" as a music server - they're not desiged for that purpose and will give you inferior sound too much electronic interference and noise. Get a real music server from an audio company that specializes in them Bryston, W4S, or any of the many others - same for the DAC.

As someone just getting into digital, I recently ripped my cd collection ok I did it twice As the gig's started to pile up, I found a bunch of 1TB drives that were pulls from computers long since retired. Bought a external 4 bay drive holder and used a single drive for each genre. By the time I got to the end of the ripping and finding myself buying a couple each week since I elected to move everything onto my Synology NAS that has TB drives set up as a raid, so no more worries about having to rip a third time.

It worked well with the 1TB external and the total cost again, I had the drives already was Still working out everything as far as the software end, but running over a wired network was the best for me, wince I already had a CAT6 going to my Magnum Dynalab MD and the tv mounted behind and above the stereo rack, a With the snow this weekend I hope to have plenty of time to now enjoy the music, much of which I have listened to in years and maybe even get a chance to build playlists I recommend checking out computeraudiophile.

The site has a really good tutorial on ripping CDs and managing your library, well worth the time to read. The tutorial also describes how to set up and use dbpoweramp, IIRC. Good luck. The music files sound better than iTunes and I agree with the earlier post suggesting that you stop using iTunes for ripping your library.

Also, my process is to rip the cd's to an external hard drive connected to my Macbook Pro and then push them out to my NAS drive. On my system the AIFF format was clearly better. I discuss the experience on my system page if you are interested.

Again, I'd start over and use XLD. Cheers, John. You may want to consider this article about ripping. Chris Connaker Founder Computer Audiophile. Bob, I purchased a Mac Mini in the fall of with the intention of building a dedicated music server. In the process of researching my options, I found there were a few folks out there that will modify the Mini with an external power supply.

It took only about a week and I couldn't be happier with it. I use dbpoweramp to rip with and have been very pleased with it. Good luck and enjoy the music. Hi All. However, my rip server was always vertexbox it is free and always up and running. I had it for the last 5 years with only 2 power outage that i can remember.

I'd like to jump onto this thread and ask several additional questions of viewers. I should have opened more of the above posts before I wrote in.. I read Chris's well researched link on how to install and configure dbPoweramp, which I purchased today Thanks for that It has worked great, however, now I need to transfer the files to an external hard drive. Does anyone have any advice about doing this? I think I need to reformat the drive so that it keeps the backups in a separate place from my music files, yes??

I copied a couple of articles about it, but I am a little confused over how to proceed. I also have no idea about how to find the files on that drive afterwards - or is this not an issue?? Lear - I have fumbled around learning how to do this myself changing the location of my iTunes ripped CDs from computer to external hard drive.

Search the internet and Apple support and see what the experts advise. Given the number of files you will be moving, this might take some time to complete. Once iTunes is on your hard drive, when you open iTunes to play music, you will have to tell iTunes the new location of the library. You will want to direct it to a file on your hard drive in iTunes that has the. I direct iTunes to the appropriate library by holding down the Option key while clicking the iTunes icon.

This should open a pop up that says, "Choose Library". Select the highlighted choose library button. This will open Finder. In Finder locate and click on your hard drive which should be listed. In the iTunes folder on your hard drive you should be able to find a file called, "iTunes Library. Click on it and then click on "Open" in the bottom right of the screen to complete this selection.
