Let's hear your alternative theory then.
I can hear a clear difference using a Transporter between FLAC decoded
on a PC and FLAC decoded on the Transporter.
Of course you need a high-end system and well-recorded material to hear
the difference. Most people simply will not hear any difference because
their systems or their ears are not up to the job.
I don't really care either way as I only use WAV.
