Welcome Licorice Pizza (LP) lovers! Setup guides and Vinyl FAQ.

use a lossless format, not MP3.

Memory is cheap nowadays, you can always converted to MP3 for your playback device. But you should definitely have a lossless master copy. I prefer 24-bit 96 kHz using Aiff format, but any lossless format should be significantly better than a lossy MP3 format. I play back my ripped records using Audirvana via the iTunes library through either the dragonfly version 1.2 or my on board d to a processor on my Parasound pre. like I said, if your playback device has limited memory then just convert to MP3 just for your playback device retaining the high-resolution recording for future playback device iterations.
