Is there such a thing? On my iPod Classic 160GB (7th Gen.), if I listen real hard with my DT880-32 (2005) amped by a HeadRoom Portable Micro (of course the Pod is lined-out) I know that in one rock song, at one specific point, a cymbal crash sounds ever so slightly brighter on an ALAC file than a 320k MP3 file (both were converted from one same FLAC).
But that's not clearly, that's listening real hard to the point that I am no longer enjoying the music, it's more like sticking my hand in a stack of needles to find one specific needle without first knowing what this specific needle is (you should probably try that).
So using just what kind of equipment can you clearly, easily, effortlessly, get-it-right-the-first-time-ly distinguish FLAC (lossless) and 320k MP3 (high quality lossy)?
Or am I beating a dead horse?
