hvbias Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 For storage purposes has anyone converted their iso/dsf/dff/etc to Wavpack files? Any pros or cons in your opinion? I would not be using Wavpack for playback since it seems to use a decent amount of CPU processing that I would need for convolution. Link to comment

jabbr Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 If you are concerned with storage space then turn on compression for your storage folder. If you dont want DSD and are concerned about file size then just buy a CD and compress with FLAC tmtomh 1 Custom room treatments for headphone users. Link to comment
hvbias Posted October 8, 2018 Author Share Posted October 8, 2018 Wavpack is 100% lossless in preserving DSD data. The major pro (besides file size) is it has tagging that is just as good as FLAC. Link to comment
SrMead Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 I have only recently started messing around with DSF files, but in my limited experience, JRiver can tag DSF files just fine. I haven't faced any limitations or issues. Link to comment
