    Bandcamp WAV vs FLAC

    I just started purchasing some Albums on Bandcamp. I downloaded FLAC and WAV for testing. WAV comes out to (foobar) 1400kbps, Flac "only" 1000kbps. I'm not really sure if there is a difference there since flac is supposed to be lossless. The main question is, since WAV doesn't support tagging...

    "Portable" Home Player solution?

    Before diving head over first into diying some raspberry contraption, i thought i'd ask the knowledgeable people here if such thing already exists. I'd like some kind of portable player for home use only. It won't go out of house, and will only be used to play music in varying spots at home. I...

    Whats the best/cheapest way to build a high quality music Back catalog?

    After listening to 320 mp3's and spotify exclusively for 2 or 3 years, the arrival of my HD600 got me back into better quality audio. I tried tidal. The quality is good, but the price is rather high and offline music is sometimes more convenient. Especially since Tidal's Desktop client is sub...

    Since my Biron BT died on me due to sweat, i need something new. I tried all the Anker offerings, and while they are decent, they just don't stay in my ears very well.

Will the Modi provide a audible upgrade in sound quality? The Interface is staying anyways, as i need it for...
