Hi everyone. As the title says, I need some good suggestions about which format is the most convenient for my DAP.
First, some informations about my equipment. I mainly use a brand new Ruizu A50 (with a 256 gb SD card), which has a great compatibility with various formats (it can even read DSD files). Regarding headphones, I use a pair of Superlux HD681B, Liam & Daan Swan and KZ Z65.
My huge library (more than 180 gb) is entirely ripped in AAC 320kbs, VBR. I'm slowing starting to rip my CD collections in Flac, but I'm really conflicted about which kind of format use on my player. I generally can notice a really subtle difference between lossless files and mp3 files, while I rarely can tell the difference with aac. (Many people say that even aac 256 is a good format)
Going straight to the point, I'd like to know if, given my actual setup, 16 bit or 24 bit flac would be just a waste of space, or if I could have a real improvement. ). I actually can fit my whole aac library in my sd card, but I would be ready to sacrifice some space just in case.
Is 320 aac a good compromise between space and quality?
Thank you in advance.
