a-ha ... I have the EC one...
This is definitely clipped - album replaygain of -8.3 (that's hot!).
I tried the demo version of the software... obviously  the gain change
is quite dramatic, so I stuck the before and after versions into Audio
DiffMaker - fascinating. The correlated difference is -70dB down (so
quite well buried in the mix). On boosting the difference, the clipping
on track 1 is on the snare drum - and really obvious.

It's hard to do in-depth listening with a 20-second sample. I think
I'll buy the software - it does SEEM to work well.

I foresee a horrendous workflow... find all albums with clipping (ie
large replaygain adjustments) convert to WAV, declip, reconvert to FLAC,
reapply replaygain, reapply tags (oh God...) - can this software not
work on FLAC files? Otw this is going to be a real labour of love!
