Probably right Gary, though for audio CD's I do as another contributor does, and do it at about 16X. If I'm copying an audio CD, I tend to do it at 8X. I've heard, possibly erroneously, that if you copy CD's at a faster speed, (if they're audio ones) then you can loose quality.

I have heard that the best way to burn CD's is to have your burner's speed set at the default speed. ----- Original Message ----- From: "stever2525" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC audio discussion list.
