I got wrong,using an iBasso DAC.

Woot! Got it right using my TBAAM + KSC75.

So easy, I immediately knew B was the 128kbps after 3 seconds
The vocals sounded very off compared to the 320kbps, it's not as sharp and you can hear some slight 'distortions' when he reaches the high pitches. And as other people, said, there's less 'air' and soundstage in B

Got it right with my C700 + onboard sound lol.
I have to listen for like 10 times each to finally able to hear a little bit of difference xD. Not a bad 128 kbps rip mp3 for sure.

 

[voicemaster]

It is easier to tell the difference between 128 kbps v 320 kbps using drums especially the cymbals sound.

 

[ghzallen]

i found very different by gs1000

 

[Bizzel]

I found the difference very obvious the first time around. The 320 clip had better positioning, a wider soundstage and a greater sense of depth.

I was worried I'd get it wrong though. Nice to know I'm not throwing money down the drain, not completely anyway!

You aren't supposed to give the answer. You ruined it for others.

Fortunately, I did the test before posting. You could tell by the orchestra behind the voice. The 128k was thinner sounding.

Yeah. Using a K701, I caught some clipping in the treble of the target excerpt. It's a giveaway in the final chord. Still, it's pretty close 80% of the time.

 

[novasol]

got it right, from the onboard crappy soundchip and speakers of my hp laptop..

Seemed to be more dense at the end with 128

I got it right the bigginning is what was different for me i had to listen to it like 10 times but i heard a difference and my ears were true. I was using some Dj1200 technics on my onboard audio to

. The difference wasn't much but i could hear a difference.

Got it right first time.

 

[aaron313]

Got it correct, but I think they both sounded like rubbish. In the end I went with my gut because I thought the second sample was a bit "dirtier," and that the ending of the first one was fuller.

 

[fraseyboy]

Got it right with my HD580's > LD MK II.

I thought the voice on the correct one sounded kinda fuller, and everything sounded more compressed on the false one.

yes i got it right. you could tel by the clicking
