Yes, this was my intention also - all that I've read about FLAC suggests it is truly lossless - but some say you'd be better off with a lesser DAP if only listening to FLAC.
Having never listened to WAV, AIFF or DSD, can you really hear a difference and, if so, is it worth the larger files?
I haven't downloaded any DSD files (don't even know if they're available for download) but I've downloaded other formats and ripped to WAV. Personally I can hear no difference between WAV, AIFF, FLAC etc. However, I dislike WAV as, even using the AK Ripper, WAV files often have the album art missing (and it's only using the AK Ripper that I've ever managed to have ANY WAV files with album art). And as I, personally, hear no difference, I can't justify the lack of art and the extra size. I don't doubt that others may hear a difference, but personally, I can't.
