It's *no* problem at all to hear the difference on a good system - all high frequencies are gone in a 128kbit MP3. That's if you can hear high frequencies...
On a computer with standard computer speakers you have to listen for artifacts introduced by the encoding, but that's as already mentioned above very difficult since the source is in itself "processed". But comparing and hearing the difference between the WAV file and a 320kbit MP3 is harder, much harder until you use a very complex symphony with many sounds of different characteristics and volume simultaneously - even on a good system. -- tommypeters SB3-->Meridian G68-->NuForce Ref8-->Bc Acoustique ACT A3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tommypeters's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6528 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32576 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
