After doing quite an extensive A/B listening, both versions sound at exact same loudness level to me. But hey, this wouldn't be the first time that subtlety is lost on me. Whichever the case, loudness does not explain it away. We've (my wife and I) been listening to these 16-bit tracks for a long time now, at various volumes, but have never before noticed this improvement in the sound quality. -- magiccarpetride ------------------------------------------------------------------------ magiccarpetride's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37863 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72852 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
