Na not really i can definitely see a difference between bluray and dvd , having a 65" hdtv . But you cant hear the difference between 16/44.1 and 24/192k it's not humanly possible regardless of ears or equipment . You can and do hear the difference between good and bad masters and recordings . So the interesting part is how Pono will run their music store would they just accept files "as is" from their sources or will they do some decent quality controll ? That would set them apart from other vendors like HD Tracks ( who in some cases even rip consumer disc's SACD for example ? ). I've signed up for Pono , maybe I should donate a small sum too . Time will tell what they actually are up to . Btw I do think that ,another lossles music vendor is not a nill result when most music stores sells mp3 even if Pono not turn out be what's hyped in thier marketing . We need more lossles music stores . material -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
