Re: FLAC on iPhone4

I can play mine from my HP Data Vault via the PlugPlayer app, which I either listen to on headphones, or via bluetooth on my Marantz receiver. It was very easy to set up, but if you start using your phone to do anything else it tends to make the sound drop out for a second or two.


Any questions, I'd be pleased to help.

RE: FLAC on iPhone4

I'm interested in your SACD files. Can you rip SACDs? Didn't think it was possible.

I have ripped quite a few SACDs but they were all hybrid SACDs of which the CD layer can be ripped.

If you need to do batch conversions from FLAC lossless to Apple Lossless on a Mac you can use Max. http://sbooth.org/Max/

It will keep all metadata.
