Sonique 2 or WinAMP 3 ???

Have any of you experiences with the two alphas of Sonique 2 and WinAMP 3?? I would like to know about stability, audio quality, features and system load. I looked at the forums at both winamp.com & sonique.com, but these guys are like religious maniacs so an unbiased review would probably be easier found among you guys.

I've always been a winamp man myself... but I tried the v3 alpha and to be honest.. it was wank. It kept crashing and half the prog didn't work properly. but it is only an alpha and I think the finished version will be great.

huh!?!?!

is there a v.3 winamp!?!?!...wow, if it's alpha then i don't know why u'd bother...let some other sucker find all the bugs that crash his system

...2.76 was just released

but yeah, i tried sonique & didn't like it...otherwise i've always used winamp since v1.4 or 1.6 i think

I didn't like sonique, it was awkward to use....winamp is my choice, never tried v.3, using v2.76....working great, till v3 is released, im happy with winamp

I tried WinAMP 3 alpha a couple of months ago, wow, that sucked bug time
kept crashing and couldn't do much
PLus that's an alpha, eh

Tried Sonique a long time ago, didn't like the inteface...very weird

...oh yeah, i forgot to add

i love winamp because of the Geiss plug-in !!!

F*&@$*&@# WICKED!!!

Posted by C-naptik on Aug-29-2001 06:02:

Oh yes the Geiss plug-in !
I go nuts with this one, hehe
When i first installed it...waow ..!
andit keeps getting improved

All the friends who passed by my computer and saw it went crazy too
I remember that we did a party in my garage and we hooked up a TV linked to my comp as video output, playing Geiss along with the music all night !

it's all about the winamp baby

I have tested some alpha & beta versions of winamp 3...
I am a huge winamp-fan... The new version is great! It also has an
auto-mix option (though the mix sucks :P :P :P ) Anyway it's very nice with many other options and plug-ins...

No idea about where I can find the new sonique... Can anyone post a url?
