This IS the problem. If done correctly, there should be no difference in volume. Therefore, something about the way you are encoding WMA is changing the volume. THAT is why is sounds "better". Actually, as pointed out above, louder is pyschologically interpreted as better by our ears, and it only takes a very slight difference (~1.5 dB) to perceive this effect. Unless you figure out how to volume match, or correct your WMA files, you cannot claim they sound "better". It's simply not doing a correct comparison. -- ezkcdude SB3->Derek Shek TDA1543/CS8412 NOS DAC->MIT Terminator 2 interconnects->Endler Audio 24-step Attenuators (RCA-direct)->Parasound Halo A23 125W/ch amplifier->Speltz anti-cables->DIY 2-ways + Dayton Titanic 10" subwoofer He's not hi-fi, he's my stereo. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ezkcdude's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2545 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22457 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
