Foobar.. too plain, sounds mediocre.

I tried Winamp w/ PowerFX and it makes the audio too dry and artificial. Gives my ears a numb sensation. Winamp w/ DFX is 2nd best to JetAudio IMO.

foobar is the one and only audio player for windows (orelse amarok wins hand down).

as custom as it gets, very light in resources, ability to handle enormous libraries (what about a dozen of playlists with ca. 1k-2k songs in each? well that sounds like winamp isn’t best at handling)

Nah, I installed DFX the other day, its not as good as Enhancer. Granted, it looks alot better, but Enhancer does more than DFX does.

And if anyone wanted that Audioburst PowerFX I talked about, heres a crack:

DFX is better dsp plugin for winamp, though its a commercial product.

And what are the pros of winamp? Hmm.. lemme think about it.. The only condenders are Media player and iTunes (or wtf the program is called). So winamp wins, hands up. Only thing thats better in iTunes is the medialibrary with album art; winamp should do something great for its library system.

Just use winamp to make the world a better place – its been around longer than you in the pc world.

Winamp has always been my favorite, now especially with this plugin: http://www.qolabs.com/audioburst/ It makes my low bitrate MP3s sound great. Plus, theres always the Enhancer 0.17 plugin that works perfectly as well. Theres a crack online somewhere.

“Although the new version offers the ability to switch between old and new look, ”

That’s a rather old feature, going WAY back they’ve had support for skins and the classic skin is always included.

Winamp aint all that when it’s put against any other media player, it’s a classic and that’s why it’s so popular it’s been around for ages.

I’ll stick with my portable version.
