    Ogg Vorbis Sounds Great!!!

    I converted 30,000 of my FLAC files to Ogg Vorbis.  Ogg sounds wonderful.It is a lossy format, but take a listen.  I prefer the sound of Ogg level 6 to MP3 320 and , Ogg seems to be smaller than MP3.  Now I can have 11,000 tunes on my Fiio X3 with a 64gb card!  Any more love out there?

    WAV Sounds The Best (To Me)

    I don't have to agree with you or anybody else.  I am aware of lossless file formats and the fact that so many people scrutinize over testing each one blindly.   Therefore, I am not ignorant.  I don't see why so many of you get disturbed when someone prefers one codec over the other.  If I...

    WAV Sounds The Best (To Me)

    Anyone is free to prove whatever they want.  Is it in my head that WAV is the most pleasing to me?  Yes.  So what.  Just put on the cans, turn on the tunes and enjoy!

    WAV Sounds The Best (To Me)

    Wav, APE, AIFF, FLAC, and ALAC are all lossless file codecs and many audiophiles say that there is no difference in sound quality between them.  I use all these file types, but feel that WAV sounds superior to the rest.  I listen with Audio Technica ATHM50 headphones and a Fiio X3 (firmware...

    Swinsian, The iTunes Alternative

    Swinsian is very good and has a streamlined interface.  JRiver is better and does more.  I need them both.

    Is ALAC genuinely lossless?

    ALAC is lossless.  You can convert ALAC to FLAC, APE, AIFF, or WAV as much as you want and not lose any quality.  As far as which lossless format sounds better, that is up to your ears.

    Pink Floyd: The Endless River

    Its fine that he not playing on the album.  Roger states, "I left Pink Floyd in 1986, get over it!"   However, There are some points on tracks that echo Meddle and Waters bass would sound great.

    Pink Floyd: The Endless River

    I downloaded Pink Floyd: The Endless River and did not expect to much.  I am pleasantly surprised by the this material and have been enjoying it very much.  It does not sound like leftovers from the Division Bell, just fresh Floyd ambient but compelling.

    VOX: Mac OSX Music Player

    Swinsian is great because you can search for duplicates and remove them easily.  Swinsian also does DSD.   Jriver is great for its customizable themes and sounds perhaps a little better than Swinsian.
