Best encoder?

<< < (2/2)

I'm helping my dad put together a system for audio playback with close to 800GBs of storage... with all data being duplicated for backup.  I had him order a 4 bay firewire enclosure with removable trays for the HDs.

200GB drives run about $120-200 (depending on rebates).

He's going to be ripping to APEs and then playing them back through an (as yet to be determined) sound card.

There is a lot of discussion about various compression formats at hydrogenaudio.org.

There are many extremely knowledgable people about various codecs and formats available.

But the advise already given is good advice. Once your audio has been encoded into a lossy format (ie MP3) it is ill advised to recompress it again.
