PX-708A & Plextools question

Hello,

I have a Plextor PX-708A drive and was wondering what is the best setting for the "CD Read Speed" under Disc Velocity in the drive settings area of Plextools?

Currently it shows "17-40 CAV". Is this the preferred setting? and if not what do other people use?

I mainly use the drive for DAE with EAC if it matters.

Thanks!

I think you can safely leave it as is. Plextools does check the disc before ripping and sometimes adjusts the speed accordingly. But, Plextools can sometimes drop the speed for what seem like unkown reasons. See the following link for more details:
