My drive supports C2 error correction and I have been using it always since it gives the fastest rips for me, while still no errors are reported and all track qualities are above 99.5%. Using this option, I get rip speeds of 18x and I was wondering whether C2 error correction is really that reliable? I mean, I never get error messages, the track quality is always reported to be over 99.5% and I cannot hear any audible difference. Is there any incentive NOT to rip at 18x under these conditions?! Btw, my drive is a LiteOn 48x CDRW (I can't remember the model name off the top of my head)

QUOTE (Pio2001 @ May 30 2003 - 12:26 AM) This CRC method only works for tracks with errors detected, and all corrected, that is very uncommon. (The only way so far to test the C2 accuracy is the DAEquality kit) EDIT : I'm talking about the CRC method for checking secure mode, not for checking a rip (in the latter case, it nearly always works). Could you explain this a little bit further? (not sure what you mean). I'd expect Atici's method works quite well. -------------------- "E S S E N T I A L" Guide for E A C :
