That's my go to ripper.
The other thing to consider is the quality of the optical drive.
I recently had to replace the optical drive on my desktop PC - it was replaced with a Pioneer DVD/RW drive, and it's far, far better than the drive it replaced.

When I did the majority of my rips I used EAC and an Old LG external cd rom drive with external psu. It did make a difference. As I dont do many now and my system is different I now just use JRiver and a inboard cdrom drive. They are not quite as good in many cases but tbh they are still pretty good. JR21 is quite decent now
I use two main apps for ripping, Easy CD Converter when in windows domain and XLD when using Mac. The latter is afreebie and works wonderfully, logging and comparing checksums online.
While Easy CD does the same it cost a couple of tenners. For me though it is worth every penny ten times over. Its main purpose for me is editing tags and converting between different formats. Works perfectly!

Does anyone know how to rip audio from a dvd-audio disc losslessly?
I have the New Gold Dream (81, 82, 83, 84) box set which has a dvd-audio disc with some videos on it but the part I want is the PCM 2.0 stereo version of the album.
Thanks
DVD Audio Extractor.
Should get a trial free of that. Ive used it myself, and its good.
Try another pc and email if it asks
