ive tested a bunch from total video converter, dbpoweramp, winamp etc and the all sound different. i usually use sony vegas 10 to convert my audio from mp3 and many other lossy formats to Wav, since it sounds the best. i also use it to convert from FLAC or any other lossless format to WAV@192kHz/24bit since there is very small but significant different in sound between lossless formats, with WAV generally sounding the best in my opinion. so the questions for debate i leave are:
 
what are the best sounding Audio Format Converters? (most importantly to and between lossless formats)
what is the best sounding lossless format? (in terms of quality or just overall preference)
