Re: Got a chance to spend more time with the Herbie's Grungebuster 2 ...

caution - I tried it once with my first grungebuster, but you have to make sure your CD mechanism doesn't first spin up at 16X or higher even if you tell it to rip at lowest speed. Mine did and centrifugal force did the rest: ripped the grungebuster and destroyed my Steve Tibbetts "Northern Song" master CD.

Since that day, I have relied on logic: as long as EAC doesn't report any retries, meaning each of the 5 minimum passes it does over a data area are identical, I don't see how the grungebuster could help with ripping.

However, I write the CDs after ripping using the grungebuster on the CD-R media, at 1X, in a burner that's nice and doesn't spin up to max speed when you tell it 1X.
