Hello Robin Thank you for your answer. Please let me just explain my way from .flc to .wav - I don't want to change the subject of this Thread. I know the relation between .wav and .flac - Files. I just wonder why the .wav File plays different on my SB3 than the same .flac File. As an example: the 2nd movement of the string quartet op.135 from Ludwig von Beethoven, interpreted by the Alban Berg Quartett, sounds as .flac File more metallic, with less air around the instruments and with less deep, than the .wav-Version.
I would be happy if the .flac Files sound the same as the .wav Files and I see all the advantages of the .flac Files. I already have built up my music library with .flac Files (FLAC 1.1.3), but was not really satisfied with the sound quality. So I tuned my SB3 (new power supply, AES/EBU-Interface), but I still missed the "aaahhhh" - feeling. Then I tried the .wav Version (I stored them before compressing to flac) - and now I am happy with the sound. These are my experiences, and I cannot explain them and would like to investigate more in this topic, perhaps in another part of the forum.
