This makes no sense. The resolution of a flac file is exactly the same as the input wave/pcm file. Flac is lossless. You can uncompress the flac file and get exactly the original file, bit for bit. Perhaps you are confused by the common use of the term "rip" In reality, its a two step process, you extract the data, and then you compress the data into a storage format. The early programs did it in one step, and the term "ripping" became popular, but not a good description of what actually happens. There is no difference in sound quality, there is no difference in the decompressed files. Its easy to test for yourself. Any person who claims otherwise is blowing smoke. -- Pat Farrell http://www.pfarrell.com/ _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
