Hmmm, interesting and not surprising. Here's the thing, I believe MOST people just do not care or will not be able to tell the difference because the majority of folks will not have the kind of gear we generally talk about here. However, I want to target the high-end crowd, not the guys who casually listen to MP3 off their computer / laptop. I want the true enthusiasts, the ones who agonize over the fine details with nice audio rooms, knowledge about the gear, even the CD pressings. As already mentioned, this brings with it the risk of folks firing up the audio editors and spectrum analyzers. That is why I have done my best to minimize these anomalies in my encoding. So far, I have spread the word on Audio Asylum and Head-Fi (Computer Audio sections). Feel free to open it up to other audiophile hangouts. The more data points the better! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Archimago's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2207 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97530 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
