I am a big fan and advocate of Ari’s work. He ripped virtually all my hi-res discs while I used dbPoweramp for my CDs. His work is flawless, timely, and financially affordable. For $7.50, I got a ripped version of an SACD, DVD-A, etc. in the format of my choice with both 2.0 and 5.1 on the HDD. Unless you can rip the hi-res versions yourself, this is the the answer,
I like Ari as well. He is very good for SACDs (no to many other ways to get them ripper)
dbpoweramp is the gold standard for manual ripping from Windows.
If you want a Roon Core server that also rips CD check out the sonicTransporter.
The sonicTransporter rips automatically as soon as you put in the disc and it adds all the metadata and cover art so you can use the FLAC file with any other music program. This is much easier then manual ripping on Windows.
