i have done it several times, and i shall desist henceforth. anything recorded before a certain time honestly deserves 256k MP3 at most. and a lot of them don't even deserve that. i still very much enjoy the music.
example: waltz for debby by bill evans. brilliant. one of favorite albums of all time. no way i can tell the difference between my original CD, which i ripped to both 320k MP3 and FLAC (and both sound the same), and the new remastered 24bit 192k version, which is just a bit louder, but provides no additional resolution. waste of money. ...pablo Server: Virtual Machine running Ubuntu 12.04 + LMS 7.7.3 on VMware Player System: SB Touch --optical->- Benchmark DAC2HGC --AnalysisPlus Oval Copper XLR->- Creek Destiny Power Amp --AnalysisPlus Black Mesh Oval->- KEF LS50 Other Rooms: 2x SB Boom; 1x SB Radio; 1x SB Classic-> MusicalFidelity M1PWR -> Totem DreamCatcher Computer audio: workstation --USB->- audioengine D1 -> Grado PS500e ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pablolie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3816 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=102391 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
