Okay I still don't know the preferred method to eliminate clipping, or is it more a personal preference??

What I do right now is rip with EAC, encode with RazorLame, and then attenuate with MP3Gain.

However I notice that the MAD WinAmp Plugin can do that also. What are your thoughts about using that as a clipping prevention technique?

Also, what is WavGain, is that a MP3Gain for wavs, so to say??

I guess I want to know if I'm going about this right, and is there any better way to prevent clipping?

Yes.

Latest version (0.7b) is available at my page.

Is it better to wavGain first, then encode, or mp3Gain after encoding? I thought I read it doesn't matter, but I wanted to ask anyway, just to make sure...

mp3Gain after encoding is better. (wavgain first will lose resolution)
