My only evidence is that the data of the original music file has been dramatic reduced, and that is very audible in my setup. And I am NOT a cable freak og anything like that. The differences is just so big, that I can not understand if anyone should have problems telling what is what. There must be something wrong in the setups.... That said. A very well recorded track can sound better as a MP3/320 file, than a bad recorded track as a FLAC file. But if you listen to the well recorded track, the FLAC version will be much better than the MP3. If your system can not reveal that, then there is definitely something wrong in the setup. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ callesoroe's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22693 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98374 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
