I think, and I stand corrected, they are not talking about the compression model, they are talking about the a listening "model". They are saying that the ear is better listener than a "linear system". Consequently if you have a compression algorithm that assumes the ear is a "linear system" and then removes things a linear system can't "hear" you'd be removing things the ear can actually hear. I have no idea which compression algorithms are assuming the ear is linear. I also don't know what "linear systems" mean in terms of listening/disntinguishing notes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ lrossouw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3416 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98124
