I'm interested in hearing some opinions on how significant the difference in sound quality is with FLAC vs alt preset extreme/standard with LAME vbr.
I'm trying to decide on a DAP, and one consideration is whether to buy the iaudio x5 so that I can use FLAC, as opposed to something like the the Sony HD5.
I'm planning to do some listening tests on my own, but I am really curious whether FLAC is the way to go. So far, I have only compaired alt-preset-standard with the original source material, and I think the differences are pretty subtle, but not completely unnoticeable.
Thanks.
