I don't agree. They are flat out LYING since it can scientifically proven that a wav file and a flac file made from that wav file will sound EXACTLY the same on piece of playback equipment. And they are also flat out LYING whenever they claim to hear difference between properly functioning USB cables. Again it can be scientifically proven that a USB cable has absolutely NO effect on the sound of a digital audio file. If either of the editors at TAS or Stereophile do not know these basic FACTS about digital audio then they should resign at once. It is time that the public called out these lying clowns and labelled them as the deceitful industry shill that they really are. One thing they are not is honest, unbiased journalists.
